About this product

The JUARA Candlenut Body Polish is the opening step of the Candlenut Spa Body Ritual — a revelation for dry, dull or rough skin that exfoliates, moisturises and leaves skin deliciously smooth all in one single step.

Unlike conventional body scrubs that strip the skin and require soap or surfactants to remove, this ultra-creamy 2-in-1 retexturising exfoliator works without water when applied to dry skin. The crushed walnut shell grains polish away dead skin cells and surface debris while candlenut oil, avocado oil and Illipe butter simultaneously deposit deep moisture into the freshly exfoliated surface — so skin is not just clean after rinsing, it is genuinely nourished.

The result is spa-level smooth skin that is perfectly primed to receive the Candlenut Body Creme and body oil that follow. The signature Candlenut fragrance — tropical greens, freesia, bergamot, rose and fresh coconut — makes this the moment the ritual truly begins.

Who it is for

The Candlenut Body Polish is Step 1 of the Candlenut Spa Body Ritual — for anyone who wants genuinely smooth, glowing body skin. It is particularly effective for dry and rough skin, post-winter skin that has lost its softness, and skin that feels dull or lacks the luminosity of a properly nourished surface.

The dry skin application method makes it ideal as a pre-shower treatment — apply across the body while dry, leave for two minutes while the oils absorb, then shower off. The skin underneath is revealed already moisturised rather than stripped.

How to use

For the full spa ritual: apply generously to dry skin before showering. Massage in gentle circular motions across legs, arms, stomach and back. Leave on for two minutes while the oils absorb into the polished surface. Step into a warm shower and rinse off. Pat dry — skin is already nourished and ready for the Candlenut Body Creme.

Can also be used on wet skin in the shower by massaging into the skin in a circular motion and rinsing off. For targeted spot care, apply to rough areas — elbows, heels, knees — and massage before rinsing.

Metta's tip: Apply to dry skin before the shower and simultaneously apply the Radiance Enzyme Scrub to your dry face — both scrubs work while you prepare for the shower and rinse off together. This is the professional spa layering technique — maximum efficiency, maximum ritual. Your face and body finish their exfoliation treatment at the same moment, and the skin that emerges is genuinely the most receptive it will ever be to what comes next.

Key Jamu ingredients

Candlenut Oil (Aleurites moluccana) — The sacred oil of the Indonesian archipelago. Rich in linoleic and linolenic acid, candlenut oil moisturises and mends rough, chapped skin while the walnut shell grains are polishing the surface above it. This dual action — physical exfoliation and simultaneous oil delivery — is what makes the Polish fundamentally different from a conventional body scrub.

Crushed Walnut Shell (Juglans regia) — Fine shell grains that polish and smooth without scratching or causing micro-tears in delicate skin. Chosen specifically for their rounded particle shape — effective enough to remove dead skin cells, gentle enough for regular use on all skin types.

Illipe Butter (Shorea stenoptera) — A rainforest butter from the Indonesian archipelago. Provides a cushioning moisture barrier that remains in the skin even after rinsing — protecting the freshly exfoliated surface against dehydration and environmental stress.

Avocado Oil (Persea gratissima) — Traditionally used in Indonesian healing for its richly hydrating and soothing properties. Nourishes and calms the freshly polished skin surface, reinforcing barrier function rather than depleting it.

Rice Bran Oil (Oryza sativa) — Rich in natural Vitamin E and essential fatty acids. Maintains the skin's youthful elasticity and provides antioxidant protection to the newly revealed skin layer.
