Natural Body Scrub

Most women and girls leave no stone unturned to keep their skin ever glowing and beautiful. They do not mind splurging out loads of money at their favorite beauty salon and spending hours to get a flawless and young facial skin, lest they forget that it’s not just their facial skin that they need to care of. Their body needs an equal amount of attention. For you wouldn’t want your face to glow and shine 10 years from now with your body looking like an old woman’s wrinkled skin? As such, there are several body scrubs that help in removing the dead skin cells and revealing the natural beauty underneath. Further, these body scrubs are natural and do not contain any chemicals, unlike those found in beauty or drug stores loaded with lots of synthetics to preserve the product. To get a soft, supple, and youthful skin, try out a natural body scrub that can be made from simple ingredients found in the kitchen. Here are a few recipes for the same. Try them out and beautify your skin.

 

 

Combine ¼ cup olive oil and ½ cup brown sugar in a small mixing bowl. Mix together with a spoon or your hands until well-blended. Apply the scrub to your wet body and massage with your finger tips in a circular motion. Leave it on for one minute and rinse off with warm water thereafter.

 

Measure ½ cup each of brown sugar and sea salt in a large mixing bowl and mix generously. Add 1 tbsp each of jojoba oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and honey along with 2 tsp freshly grated lemon peel. Prick a small hole in a vitamin E capsule and squeeze out the juice into the mixture. Stir to blend all the ingredients. Wet your body and apply and scrub. Massage the scrub into the skin using your fingertips, giving more attention to dry areas, such as heels, knees, and elbows. Rinse off the scrub with warm water and pat dry.

 

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of coarsely ground coffee and ½ cup raw sugar or kosher salt. Add in 3 tbsp yogurt and mix well to blend all the ingredients. Take a hot shower to open up the pores and spread the scrub all over your body, rubbing it gently for 3-5 minutes. Rinse off and follow with your usual shower routine.

 

Take 1 cup coarse brown sugar or turbinado sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add ½ cup coconut oil, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and ½ tsp coconut extract. Mix well. Gently stir in 3 tbsp unsweetened dark cocoa powder. Store the scrub in a glass or plastic container secured with a lid. To use, scoop out a tbsp of the scrub and massage it into your wet body in circular motions. Henceforth, wash off with warm water.

 

Combine ¼ cup each of rolled oats and milk powder in a blender. Add 1 tbsp each of sea salt, cornmeal, and powdered rose petals. Process the ingredients to get a coarse scrub mixture. Add few drops of any essential oil and run the blender for another 5 seconds. Use the scrub onto your wet body and massage it into the skin with your fingertips. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.

 

Gather these ingredients to make a natural body scrub for a soft, smooth, and glowing skin. All the best!
