Make Your Own Exfoliator With Ingredients From Your Kitchen

October 1, 2012

We are all looking for the best body scrub to leave our skin silky smooth. The problem is we don’t want to break the bank. Instead of spending the big bucks for the latest exfoliators or spa treatments, why not make your own?  I’ve come up with a recipe for the perfect scrub that will leave your skin smooth, fresh and clean without any irritation. Want to know the best part? Everything you need is waiting for you in your kitchen cabinet!

  1. You’ll need salt and sugar (more of one, depending on the type of scrub you want), olive oil, and honey.  You need one part oil to two parts sugar or salt.
  2. For an average amount of the scrub, take ½ cup of salt or sugar. I decided to use sugar, since it tends to be gentler on the skin, and add it to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Then take ¼ cup of olive oil (regular or extra virgin) and add it to the salt or sugar.
  4. After you’ve added the olive oil, add two tablespoons of honey for extra benefits. The honey acts as an adhesive for the scrub and it also is amazing for your skin.
  5. Add a few sprinkles of either salt or sugar, whichever you didn’t use in step 2.
  6. Mix everything together and there you go! You have your own natural exfoliator (made from your kitchen!) in less than 5 minutes!

Now its time to hit the shower or bath to give your body the ultimate skin smoothing treatment!
