Summer is just around the corner and so is bikini season! Besides being in great shape for that super cute swim suit you just bought, it’s equally as important make sure your skin is in tip top shape. Not only should you be chugging water and eating right to make sure your skin stays clear, but you should also give your skin a good scrub once a week. This will insure your skin stays smooth and glowing! But who really wants to buy some fancy scrub, when you can just swing by the grocery store and make your own awesome beauty scrub for super cheap!
Here is the link to the original “Pin”: Honey Sugar Skin Scrub
All you need is:
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- ¼ cup of virgin olive oil
- 1 lemon-just a squeeze or two
- A small container with a lid
What you need to do:
Grab the container you want to put your new favorite scrub in.
Mix the honey and olive oil and the lemon juice.
Then slowly mix in the sugar.
Then mix all together until it is a nice smooth consistency.
Then seal the container and place in the fridge until you want to use.
When Using the Scrub: Take small palm fulls of the scrub and use all over your body. Make sure you really scrub it in to fully exfoliate your skin. Then rinse off, pat dry, and apply your favorite lotion, like mine: Paris Amour Body Butter Lotion from Bath and Body Works. Let the lotion really sink in, and check out your new soft, luminous skin.
One Final Tip: Don’t forget to slather on the sunscreen! Protect your skin, even if you have class all day. It will pack in extra antioxidants and keep your skin looking super youthful and not leathery! So get excited for summer and get your skin just as pumped!
