DIY Sugar Scrub
This post is entirely dedicated to my lovely friend Rachel. Not only is she an amazing med student, great friend and an incredible cook, she is also my little inventor! You see my friend Rachel decided to make a DIY scrub using sugar & mixed it with her usual body wash. I am all for natural & home made beauty mixes so I thought I will try this one but with a twist! Turns out - Rachel is amazing! This is by far the best scrub ever! I have tried many (my mother was a beauty therapist so I got to try various expensive and amazing beauty products) but I have to say Rachel, this simple recipe is a success.
How to make your own:
1. Mix one cup of sugar (I used brown sugar) with coconut (or vegetable) oil. You really have to decide how much because the goal is to mix it together to create a good paste.
2. Add a few drops of your fave essential oil & scrub away. I used the Geodesis Tiare Tiare. If you keep water out of the mixture it will last for a few weeks!
Optional: I read that caffeine has tightening effects so naturally I worked in some coffee beans in there ...oh and the smell of coffee!
Seriously ladies, try this one at home because it is the greatest thing for smooth legs :) xxx
