Get Gorgeous Summer Skin!

It is very important that we keep our skin looking healthy and glowing during the summer. One of my favorite at home remedies is to use a scrub while I am in the shower to remove all of the dead skin cells for a more healthy looking skin. Check out some of my favorite scrubs to make with these simple ingredients.

Coffee Body Scrub: 

  • 2 cups of coffee grounds (Brand does not matter--in fact, the cheaper the better.)
  • 1/2 cup raw sugar or sea salt
  •  A dash of cinnamon
  •  Brown sugar - Brown sugar adds a sweet smell, as well as a coarse texture that helps to rejuvenate your skin. Add until you reach the texture desired.
Lemon-Brown Sugar Body Scrub: 

  • 1/4 cup coarse brown sugar (to gently exfoliate without drying)
  •  1 cup grapeseed oil (to moisturize) 1/4
  •  1/4cup grated lemon peel (to invigorate your senses)

Salt Scrub:
  • 1/2 cup oil (sweet almond, grapeseed or another light-textured massage oil.)
  •  1 cup fine sea salt
  •  5-15 drops high quality essential oils
