Coconut
Almond Sugar Body Scrub
Sugar
cane contains glycolic acid, one of the natural alpha hydroxy
acids that exfoliates the skin. Dermatologists use it in peels
and you can use it at home in much smaller concentrations to
improve your skin's appearance and texture. (It may even reduce
wrinkles and improve other skin conditions.)
It's
amazingly easy to nourish and smooth your skin (or a loved
one's...) from within your kitchen cabinet. And besides,
afterwards, you'll have healthier, smoother, brighter-looking
skin with a deliciously sweet glow ....
Ingredients:
1
cup Fair Trade Organic Sugar
2 Vitamin E capsules,
popped and drained
3 Vitamin A capsules, popped and
drained
1/4 cup canola oil (or another neutral-smelling
oil)
5-10 drops of almond oil
5-10 drops of coconut
oil
Mix
it up, put it in a sealed jar. Take by spoonfuls and rub it on
your hands and feet to exfoliate or use all over with a loofah
or wash cloth! Rinse well and dry. You'll be amazed.
(Remember
that because the skin on our faces is so very tender, you'll
need to be extra gentle–especially around your
eyes.)
Happy
Valentine's
