This sugar and honey body scrub DIY recipe can be made with a just few items from the kitchen. Smooth and nourish skin with this homemade scrub. Plus, when you make your own body products, you can save money! The ingredients are chosen to leave your skin feeling smooth and soft. I personally use this as both a facial mask and a body scrub once every two weeks. For those who have oily skin, use it once or twice a week. Although most of these products can be found in your kitchen, please be sure that you use natural and untreated raw honey as it has medicinal benefits.
Sugar And Honey Body Scrub Tutorial
Your skin is sure to enjoy the sugar and honey body scrub DIY ingredients.
Sugar is a natural physical exfoliant because of its grainy texture and a chemical exfoliant because it is water soluble.
Oil is a deep moisturizing agent. You can be flexible with the type of oil you use in this scrub. I prefer avocado oil because it has so many benefits to the skin. Alternatively, you can use olive oil as it is cheaper, more readily on hand in most kitchens, and still good for your skin.
Honey is a natural antibacterial which is great for acne treatment. It also draws water into skin cells and hydrates the skin. Honey is also known to have anti-aging properties. Healthline has even more info on the benefits of honey for your skin.
Bananas are packed with vitamins A, B and C and moisturize the skin.
This easy to make sugar and honey scrub will leave your skin nourished, moisturized, and exfoliated.
