How about having a spa day at home? Brown sugar scrub treatments at the spa can be expensive and buying scrubs from your favorite bath and body store or online can be pricey too. Making your own all natural brown sugar scrub is fun, easy and affordable. You probably have the ingredients in your kitchen. I saw a brown sugar scrub retailing online for $65.00. There's no way I'm paying $65.00 for a brown sugar scrub. The cost of all the ingredients needed for making your own body scrub is under $10.00 You only need three ingredients Brown Sugar, Olive Oil and honey.
• Brown Sugar is a gentle exfoliate great for all skin types
• Olive Oil is a great moisturizer
• Honey has anti- bacterial properties which means honey will stop bacteria from growing in your body scrub and honey is a great moisturizer
I really love making my own sugar scrubs because I have control of what ingredients I can add to the scrub. There are so many great oils you can use like sweet almond, grape seed and avocado oil. You can even add some shaving of African black soap so that the scrub can later up. This scrub will make you feel soft and smooth. The natural brown sugar buffs away dry skin cells and helps to hold moisture in you skin. Olive Oil and honey ensures that your skin is left completely hydrated and revitalized.
Here's how to make a all natural brown sugar scrub
You'll need:
1 to 2 cups of brown sugar
5 tablespoons of Olive Oil
2 tablespoons of honey
