Today, I have a simple DIY Body scrub which I've tried and tested as well and would love to share it with all you girls! It can be used anywhere on the body, lips and the face.
Reminder: Make sure when your using this on the face, you use granulated sugar so that the grains are fine and that you don't end up scratching yourself ( we don't want that. Yikes!) . If you don't have granulated sugar you can simply put normal sugar in a food processor and grind it. You can also use Brown Sugar which is great for dry or sensitive skin as i feel it's a lot lighter than using white sugar.
The results are amazing! and you can feel it immediately. Your skin will feel baby soft and glowing and make you smell great as well (If you put in any essential oils along with the scrub).
Ingredients required:
- 1/2 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Cup Sugar (fine for the face, normal granulated sugar for the body)
- Bowl
- Mixing Spoon
- Jar with a Lid
- Muslin Cloth (optional)
- Few drops of any Essential oil whatever you prefer (optional - Vanilla. mint, Lavender etc.)
Mix the Sugar with olive oil in a bowl. Put in the essential oils if your using any at this point.
Get in the shower, Wet your body. Take a palmful of the mixture in your hands and start scrubbing (gently) in small circular motions all over.Rinse and pat dry. Thats it!
For the Face use the scrub very very gently to make sure you don't end up scratching the skin and also make sure the sugar granules are fine. Use a muslin cloth to wipe off. No need to rinse it off!
The Great thing about this scrub is that any skin type can use it and it works great and gives results instantly. Oily skinned people, don't get thrown off with the olive oil because It's naturally a good type of oil to use and it doesn't clog pores.

If anything is left off, you can store it in jar with a tight lid and use it once every week and it can be stored for upto weeks. Don't worry if you see the oil not mixing well with the sugar. They are meant to never dissolve in each other and it doesn't spoil as well. just mix it again with a spoon and re-use again.
VOILA! - simple and Easy!
