Exfoliate your skin with items in your kitchen.



You don't have to spend a lot of money to get a really good exfoliator. In fact, you probably have all of the ingredients in your own kitchen! I'll teach you how to make a brown sugar (and then some) exfoliator, it's quick and easy! =O) :D

You can use any size plastic container or glass jar that you want… for the sake of this tutorial, let’s just say you used a small Tupperware container.

Fill half of the container with brown sugar (make sure it’s grinded well, no chunks).

Add 1 teaspoon of sea salt (I like sea salt because it’s chunkier and works great to get rid of dead skin).

Add 1 tablespoon of honey to the container.

Pour in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.

Add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the mixture and mix well.

If it has too much of a creamy consistency, then pour in some more brown sugar and mix until you reach the desired texture.

The end result: The mixture shouldn’t be too rough but it should still have a grainy texture… (I hope that made sense!) =O)

Dampen face with warm water, lather your face with the brown sugar exfoliator (in gentle, upward-circular motions), rinse face clean, and pat your face dry (remember... never rub, always pat). Good Luck Everyone!
