The decadent, rich scent of this scrub combines with gentle sugars to buff and polish skin to ultimate smoothness. GIOVANNI was the first full-range, salon-inspired hair-care brand in natural product stores, and today is the #1 selling Hair Care line in the United States Natural Products Industry. But before there was a brand, there was a pioneer. Arthur Guidotti had a vision and a love for all things hair. He began developing his passion as a hairstylist in Hollywood and Beverly Hills. He worked for a time with hairstylist icon Gene Shacove and was good friends with β€œthe father of hair color,” Al Lapin. By the 1960s, Arthur was maturing his talents and decided to open his own salon, called On Sunset. The salon was a bustling site, on the famous Sunset Strip, and a hit with many Hollywood celebrities, including Lucille Ball. Since 1979 the GIOVANNI Rule of Balance has been our commitment to make each product as pure and as natural as possible without sacrificing exceptional product performance. GIOVANNI is committed to creating only the highest-performance formulations, wrapped in aesthetically beautiful packaging and marketed with extraordinary visuals and graphics. Review: Smells so good. - I absolutely love this. It smells good and I couldn't believe that it actually warms up as soon as it touches your skin. Makes your skin nice and smooth and smell like hot chocolate. I will deafantly buy this again. Review: Excellent scrub for dry, sensitive skin - Pros: turns sandpaper-like skin into touchable skin, smells good, can be used on sensitive skin, gets rid of bumps on the back of the upper arm, no animal testing, 100% vegetarian ingredients, has several certified organic ingredients Cons: expensive, hard to find locally, does not last long, amazing smell does not linger, may be too moisturizing for someone with oily skin I have been buying this and only this scrub for several years now. Over the years I have tried many different scrubs from St. Ives apricot scrub to $20+ scrubs to my own homemade concoctions. This is by far the best scrub I have ever used and the only store bought scrub I am not allergic to. My skin type is: very sensitive, dry, and prone to redness. Also, I am sensitive to fragrances and chemicals. I used to be able to buy this scrub locally (for around $13) at Whole Foods, Publix, and Walmart but they all stopped carrying it. I am lucky this product is sold on desertcart (and for a much better price than it was available for locally) and dread the day it will no longer be available because it is the only body scrub I can use really. This scrub has small exfoliating sugar crystals and smells amazing. I wish the chocolate fragrance lingered a bit. This scrub is warming when used which is likely why it is called "hot chocolate". Some of my skin (mostly my stomach) turns a little red at first after use because of the warming effect in conjunction with the rubbing of the sugar crystals across my skin. This chocolate scrub actually helps keep away bumps I get on the backs of my arms. I love this scrub and would recommend it to someone with my skin type but not to someone with oily skin because it is likely too moisturizing. I do not, however, recommend the mint lemon salt scrub by Giovanni to anyone with my skin type at it is extremely drying, which may make it an ideal scrub for someone with oily skin. ## Features - MOISTURIZING BODY CARE - Sweeten your day with the GIOVANNI Hot Chocolate Sugar Body Scrub!

I will deafantly buy this again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent scrub for dry, sensitive skin *by 1***E on April 25, 2015* Pros: turns sandpaper-like skin into touchable skin, smells good, can be used on sensitive skin, gets rid of bumps on the back of the upper arm, no animal testing, 100% vegetarian ingredients, has several certified organic ingredients Cons: expensive, hard to find locally, does not last long, amazing smell does not linger, may be too moisturizing for someone with oily skin I have been buying this and only this scrub for several years now.

The scent is like decadent, rich, velvety smooth fudge. The sugar and crushed cocoa beans are just abrasive enough to slough away any dry patches your skin may be plagued with, yet gentle enough to keep even sensitive skin from harm. Most skin scrubs are so crumbly that when scooped into your hand, a lot of the product drops onto the floor of your shower. Not so with the Giovanni scrub. The consistency of this product is almost gel-like. The exfoliants are suspended in a this gel. It does not slip off the skin as soon as your hand smooths it on, so none of the product is wasted. I've tried products similar to the Giovanni Sugar Scrub, and nothing compares. My showers suck without this stuff! Although Giovanni Sugar Scrub is a bit pricey, the quality of the product justifies the dollar amount. (One 9 ounce container should last one person about 2 or 3 months.) FYI.... During hot summer months, add a few drops of peppermint essential oil to this scrub. It smells just like a York Peppermint Patty, and the coolness of the mint makes your skin feel refreshed and tingley! ## Frequently Bought Together - GIOVANNI Hot Chocolate Sugar Body Scrub - Exfoliating Body Scrub, Contains Crushed Cocoa Beans, Sugar Scrub for Body, Enriched with Essential Oils, Vegan - 9 oz (2 Pack) - Masaki Matsushima Chocolat Mat Body Lotion 6.65 oz for Women --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/7789347-hot-chocolate-sugar-body-scrub](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/7789347-hot-chocolate-sugar-body-scrub) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
