Things you'll need:
- Juice of one whole lemon
- Cinnamon
- Raw honey (not shown in pics)
- Sea salt
- Coconut oil
- Brown sugar
- Mason car w/ lid or any other container
- Spoon to mix
**Make sure to wash the mason jar or any other container you will be using to insure no debris are trapped inside. We want this to be a bacteria free scrub. ^_^
There is really no exact way to do this, you simply add the items to the jar and once done, mix well and close lid. I did not measure any ingredients, simply calculated it based on how much would fit in my container. I like to let mine sit for a few hours before I use it. Usually I use it 2-3 times per week and it will last me 2 weeks. I prefer to use it when I shower as this is more convenient.
Beauty Benefits:
Lemon juice: Helps lighten skin over time, so if you have dark spot like the underarm this would be a great area to apply it.
Raw Honey: great cleanser for acne, help fade scars, hair conditioner, moisturizer, natural bleaching effect and when combined with lemon juice and sugar it helps remove excess body hair.
Cinnamon: helps remove dead skin cells, and a great moisturizer. * Like Angelina Jolie's full lips? apply vaseline then damp ground cinnamon to lips, let sit for few mins, rinse, then apply more vaseline/Chapstick and voila! no surgery needed.
Sea salt: Helps exfoliate and smoothen rough skin.
Brown sugar: Help remove dead skin cells, helps trap moisture in the skin for long lasting soft legs, and it aids guard the skin from destructive toxins.
Coconut oil: Moisturizes the skin; fatty acids in the oil reinforces the natural lipid barrier of our skin thus locking in moisture. It also contains anti-fungal properties to this scrub is also great to use on the feet.
I hope you give it a try, let me know if it helped you.
