A brightening facial scrub? It doesn’t get any easier than this

It takes approx. 2 minutes to read this article

The biggest advantage of preparing cosmetics with your own hands is not only saving money, but also using things available at hand, without trips to the drugstore or waiting for days for a package. What’s more, the product will be 100% natural.

A scrub is designed to remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. Doing it regularly prevents clogged pores, a gentle facial massage stimulates collagen production and improves blood circulation in the skin

With an exfoliant like this, your face will not only get a glow but also an even skin tone. It will be smooth, refreshed and moisturized and any blemishes will appear much less frequently. After scrubbing, remember to apply moisturizer or nourishing cream – on such a cleaned face it will be absorbed perfectly and will work even better.

To make this scrub, which will help your skin gain a spring glow, you need the following:

  • half a cup of sugar
  • A tablespoon of honey
  • ¼ cup aloe vera gel
  • 3 tablespoons of grated lemon peel (dried and blended peel of other citrus fruit – tangerine or orange – can be substituted)
  • 3 tablespoons of linden or chamomile infusion

Massage the concoction in circular motions on moistened skin. You can store the rest of the product in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Once nicely packaged, it is perfect for a gift, for example for the upcoming Mother’s Day!
