Having soft skin is something no one could ever refuse, this is not something you do for a significant other, but for yourself. And also not because society says women should have soft skin, but because it just makes you feel good. So below is a list of 6 easy body scrubs for you to make at home and love yourself up.
1. Sugar and coconut oil
It doesn't get any easier.
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup melted coconut oil (more if you want).
Mix the two together until you get a coarse paste and apply in circle motions all over your body. Be gentle with you breast, neck and face area because the skin is a bit more delicate.
The sugar exfoliates your skin and the coconut oil hydrates it, and will leave you feeling silky smooth.
2. Coffee, Sugar, Olive oil and Vitamin E
This one you can do with or without the vitamin E.
1/4 cup ground coffee or coffee granules
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
the juice of 2 vitamin E capsules
Mix the ingredients together until you get a coarse paste and apply in circle motions all over your body. Be gentle with you breast, neck and face area because the skin is a bit more delicate.
The sugar exfoliates and removes all the dead skin cells, while the antioxidants of the coffee bless and nourish your skin and the olive oil hydrates.
3. Sea Salt, Olive Oil and Essential Oil
This will not only make your skin feel amazing but will also give you some aromatherapy at the same time.
1 cup sea salt
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
10 drops of either tea-tree or lavender essential oil
Mix the ingredients together until you get a coarse paste and apply in circle motions all over your body. Be gentle with you breast, neck and face area because the skin is a bit more delicate.
The sea salt exfoliates and improves blood circulation while the olive oil nourishes your skin. Tea-tree oil has anti-bacterial properties and lavender oil has stress reducing properties.
4. Lemon and Sugar Body Scrub
I just love lemon.
4 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp honey
1 whole lemon
Juice the lemon with your hands and a fork. Mix the ingredients together until you get a coarse paste and apply in circle motions all over your body. Be gentle with you breast, neck and face area because the skin is a bit more delicate.
Lemon is amazing for your skin and is high in vitamin C, the sugar will exfoliate and the honey will hydrate your skin.
I hope your skin will become a priority for you and that it'll be as soft as mine! Let me know which is your favorite recipe.
