Home Made Scrubs for face
Exfoliation is the easiest
step to renew and unmask the smooth skin by removing the outer dead skin. There
are lots of exfoliators such as facial scrubs available in the market. But how about saving some money
while trying some of these homemade natural facial scrubs. It takes a little
time to prepare them and they do not come in fancy packaging but the kind of
effect that they give with the assurance that there are no harmful ingredients,
is just worth the effort you put while preparing and using them.
Here are two home made scrubs
that can be mild and gentle even for the sensitive skin:
Sugar and honey: Take some finely granuled sugar and honey. Mix both of them well. Honey
is quite thick so as not to dissolve the sugar granules completely till the
time you are lightly massaging your face in gentle circular motions. Honey is a
well know humectant (it retains moisture) that hydrates and nourishes the skin. If you have dull
dry, flaky skin, then this is the best natural homemade scrub for you as it
will gently remove the flaky dead skin and also will nourish your dry skin. Make
sure the sugar granules should not be very large as they might cause rashes.
Baking Soda: Take some baking soda and mix it with adequate water to make a paste,
the consistency should not be too thick or too runny. It should be consistent
enough so as to let the product move on the skin with massaging in upward
circular motions. This facial scrub is ideal for sensitive skin as the baking
soda granules are suitable enough to exfoliate gently. It can be a good
everyday gentle scrub for oily skin or a
daily scrub for those parts of the face that are more likely to have whiteheads
or blackheads.
Try these are revealing the
smooth skin inside and get glowing!!

delicious fruit scrubs next time.

ReplyDeleteHi Demi, glad to see you back, hope you fine.:)
DeleteWow Niesha, I want to try the baking soda exfoliation scrub. I have a question about the honey one. Does it wash off easily? I mean usually honey leaves that sticky feeling on my skin.
ReplyDeleteI use the baking soda one on the whiteheads prone area only and the honey one is my favorite with sugar as scrub or without as a pack. I agree Gagan, It feels sticky so i splash my face with water first, so as to make the honey on the face dilute and then rub it off and rinsing with water completely.
DeleteThanks for explaining the method. Will try it this way now :) I think I do need the baking soda one for my nose, which has suddenly gone oily as if forever.
DeleteNice tips niesha! Am definitely trying out the baking soda one!
