Rose and Lavender Body Scrub

January 15, 2015 by hellnotesforbeauty |

One of my all time secret to soft, glowing skin year round is my D.I.Y homemade body scrub.  I don’t deal with many skin issues, but it’s important I exfoliate regularly to help keep dry skin at bay.  Since I don’t like to use lotions per say (more of a butter girl) I add a hefty dose of cocoa and shea butter for a luxurious feel to my skin especially during this winter’s bitter cold.

The base for my body scrub is plain white sugar.  Although I use plain white sugar, you can also use  organic brown sugar.  Sugar aka glycolic acid is a form of alpha-hydroxy acid which protects the skin from toxins, reduces fine lines and wrinkles as well as remove dead skin cells. Today I will show you a simple yet effective recipe you can make at home.  The ingredients can be found at any local natural health store or via many online vendors. 

I chose rose water concentrate (cheaper alternative) for its soothing scent as well as lavender, although they’re equally as beneficial for the skin and mind.

Butters are my favorite for all of my homemade skin products.  I love to melt them all together for my scrubs for the ultimate glow and hydration.  I purchase my shea butter from local vendors and purchased my cocoa butter from the brand NOW.

I couldn’t leave my all time favorite out of the mix, so of course I added coconut oil.

I keep my jar tightly sealed in my shower and add extra vitamin oil to prevent mold.  I use this batch in about 5 days and keep any left over in the fridge and reach for it every few days.
