BEAUTY 101: Sweet Sugar Scrub

 

Want a full-on fab body scrub? We’ve got a sweet one you can whip up at home. It’s gentle on your skin and less dehydrating than a salty variety. Use this all-over body scrub before bathing as an exfoliator before you self use self-tanner. Like a trip to the spa, but wayyy friendlier on your wallet!

Ingredients:

*1/4 cup granulated sugar
*2 tablespoons light oil, such as almond, canola, or sunflower
*2 tablespoons milk

Directions:

Mix together all the ingredients into a smooth cream. To use: Before bathing, gently massage the mixture all over your body to increase circulation and remove dry, flaky skin. Make sure you are standing on a towel or inside the shower. Rinse your skin with warm water and moisturize well. Makes 4 ounces, enough for one treatment!

Mod! (I think that is what you do if you wanna ask a question, I'm new here)
Anyways I don't have the granulated sugar but I do have olive oil and milk, my family is broke till Saturday, So I cant go buying anything, is there anything to be a substitute for the sugar? Thanks!

 

Hey girl! Welcome! So yes at the beginning of a question you say : MOD!MOD!MOD! and then we'll respond to you asap! You could potentially try salt, but the article says that it'll dry out your skin a lot more. I would hold off on this recipe until you get sugar, but there are plenty of other recipes online! If you try googling scrubs I'm sure you'll find all sorts of different ones to try! Good luck and hope you're enjoying the site! xoxo

MODMODMOD,
Can I make a bunch of this and just store it in like a plastic container?

 

Hey girl! I'm sure that would be fine!

Mod!
Can I use this for acne on my face? Is it 2 irritating?

 

Hey chica!  This scrub is gentle, but if you have super sensitive skin, be careful not to scrub too hard.  For your face, try this after (or in) the shower, so your pores are open and you can be gentle. xoxo
