Homemade Facial Scrub

Exfoliating your skin is necessary to keep it glowing and smooth. Exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells and promotes collagen production. This helps to reduce wrinkles, improves skin tone and results in clear and even complexion. It also removes blackheads and white heads and makes pores appear smaller. Though many scrubbing or exfoliating products are available out there, very few actually works. Sometimes they cause damage rather than giving expected benefits. Homemade natural facial scrubs are the best to achieve good results.

Preparation:

  1. First step is to choose the exfoliant. You may choose sugar, brown sugar or salt. Sugar or brown sugar is much better for sensitive skin types.

 2. Now choose any oil of your choice. Almond oil, Olive oil, Argan oil, Coconut oil, Avocado oil or Safflower oil are best.

3. Take one cup of sugar or brown sugar or salt and mix it with half cup of any oil of your choice.

How to Use the Scrub:

Spread the mixture on your skin and rub it gently for one or two minutes to slough off dead skin. You can use warm water to help the mixture spread easily.
Rinse with warm water and pat dry with a towel.

Tip: Take care that you be very gentle while you scrub because you don’t want to damage your skin. Aggressive exfoliating can lead to skin irritation!

  1. I have try to make this recipe and I used coconut oil instead of Argan oil because it was not available at that time. It has helped me to cover up the prone skin.
