Sugar scrubs are my favourite simple, at-home skincare deal with as a result of apart from leaving my pores and skin gentle and easy, they solely take a couple of minutes to make. You may even have the elements already: sugar and a nourishing provider oil, plus extras like essential oils or flower petals that make the scrub additional luxurious to make use of. I used rose and calendula flowers on this scrub—they scent wonderful and I really like how they appear to be floral confetti!
Provides:
-1 cup of superfine caster sugar (I discover it’s a bit of gentler on pores and skin however any granulated sugar works)
–rosehip oil (jojoba oil or sweet almond oil work properly too)
-1/4 cup dried rose and calendula flower petals, stems and leaves eliminated
–a jar or different container with a lid

Add just a few droppers stuffed with oil and stir it in. Add a bit of extra at a time till the sugar appears like fluffy, moist sand. I used rosehip oil as a result of it’s tremendous moisturizing and can be stated to even out pores and skin tone and enhance texture, however any facial oil works properly.I blitzed a small handful of flower petals in a meals processor till they had been very nice, however you may additionally chop them by hand. Stir them into the sugar combination and also you’re finished!
I discover that after I gently rinse the scrub off my face, a number of the oil is left behind so my face feels glowy and moisturized in a single step. And it smells so good!
