It’s very
easy to make SUGAR SRUB at home, but
before starting with the recipe of the Sugar Scrub, I would like to brief you
little bit about what scrubs are, what they do and how they benefits our skin.
SCRUBS are very important to get nice healthy
glow on skin. They not only add glow to our skin but also help in removing the
dead layer of skin and thus helping in exfoliation. Rubbing of scrubs on our skin, removes the
dull outer layer resulting in a very soft healthy looking skin.
Scrubs are of different
kinds like SUGAR, Papaya, Walnut,
Apricot, Nutmeg, Salt etc. made of different fruits and vegetables
according to different skin types, oily, dry and normal. Choosing the scrub
depends on your skin type and need. Like WALNUT
SCRUB is amazingly good for ACNE SKIN.
Also Tea Tree oil scrub works good on acne and sensitive skin. Almond
Oil one is good for dry skin. But all scrubs perform the common role of
removing dead layer of skin and thus making skin extremely soft.
Now a days
lot of Scrubs are available in Indian market like Walnut, Apricot etc and some
of them have suited me very well. I really liked BIOTIQUE PAPAYA SCRUB and even
reviewed it, check HERE.
But what if
we could make our own HOMEMADE SCRUB.
Yes its very easy to make a natural safe scrub and takes only few minutes. Home
Made scrub is best for sensitive skin since it contains all natural
ingredients and no chemicals thus making
it very safe to use on all skin types like dry, oily normal, and even on
sensitive skin types. I am making Sugar
scrub because it’s good for all skin types and does not harm them. So let’s get
started.

Ingredients Required to make HOME
MADE SCRUB using SUGAR as a Natural Exfoliant.
Sugar
(You can use
any-brown or white, but if you have acne or sensitive skin, I would highly
recommend to go for Brown Sugar, since it very much gentle than the white one.)
Extra Virgin
Coconut Oil
You can use
any light oil like Olive oil/ Coconut Oil but I would suggest using EXTRA
VIRGIN COCONUT OIL, since it’s good for all skin types and does not even harm
pimple or acne prone skin by aggravating acne.
Essence/
Essential oil of your choice. (optional)
This part is
optional but if you want to add some divine fragrance to your homemade scrub
you can add few drop of vanilla essence, Lemon oil or any other oil o your
choice to delight your senses.
I would
suggest following oil according to the skin type.
Tea Tree Oil - Highly recommended for people with
acne prone skin. Add few drops of tea tree oil to your homemade scrub if you
suffer from acne or pimples since tea tree oil is very good for acne.
Lemon
Essence/Oil - Good for all skin
types, specially acne but not sensitive. Lemon Oil can be used on all skin
types except sensitive skin.
Avocado Oil
- For dry skin. Add few drops of this oil if you have dry skin.
Vanilla /
Strawberry essence – General essence to
add fragrance to your scrub and to awaken your senses.
METHOD
Take 1 cup
of Sugar. Grind sugar into fine granules
so that its not harsh on your skin. I have grind this sugar leaving just few
thick particles for stubborn areas exfoliation.
Mix half a
cup of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil to a cup of Sugar and mix it nicely. Keep
stirring it till you get a smooth paste.
Keep mixing.
Finally your scrub is ready. If you want a little thin scrub then add little more oil to it and its done.
APPLICATION/ How To Use
Apply
sufficient amount of this HOME MADE SUGAR SCRUB oo your body, face, arms,
neck, feet, legs and massage it for few
minutes. Be very gentle on sensitive delicate areas like face, neck, armpit and
a little tough on stubborn areas like nose, elbow, knee, which require a little
strong exfoliation but don’t be harsh at all. Massage for few minutes and then
rinse with cold water and pat dry.
