Sugar Scrub Recipe For A DIY Body Scrub
A diet loaded in too much sugar will not do your skin any favors, however incorporating it into your beauty routine will deliver some pretty sweet results. Sugar makes a great DIY face exfoliator and body too!
A sugar scrub is a simple body treatment that you can do right at home on a budge! It’s specific benefits include skin exfoliation which removes off dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and increases blood circulation to the skin. This promotes the continual renewal of skin cells to reveal younger, healthier skin that gives the skin a natural radiance and is really soft and looks like you’ve been to a spa.
One major factor in great skin is exfoliating frequently (a minimum of 1-2 times per week). I’m in an especially hot and dry climate that loves to dry my skin out. Typically, I exfoliate three times weekly. This regime is not prime for everybody, but it’s what works best for my dry skin and keeps my pores unclogged.
