DIY Beauty: Lemon & Honey Sugar Scrub

Hello, Lovelies
 
 
With falling being just around the corner mild weather will come and bring the cool dead of winter days. But with all that being said currently in Colorado where I live we are having a heat wave of 90+ days for weeks now.
 
I suffer from horrible eczema in the winter months but thankfully not on my face. But I still get very dry chapped skin. So I thought I'd look for a not to harsh face scrub that will help release the dead skin and replenish it with moisture.
You can go to your local beauty store or online and find all kinds of different scrubs but a lot of them have really strong smells, chemicals, and aren't cheap.
So why not do it yourself?
 
Natural
Cheap
&
Easy
 
 
What more could a girl or guy(Guys you need to take care of your skin too!) ask for!?!
 
 
 
What you'll Need:
Organic/Raw Sugar
Fresh Lemon
Organic or Raw Honey
Olive Oil
 
2-2 1/2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 Tablespoons Fresh Lemon
2 1/2 Tablespoons Honey
4-5 Tablespoons Sugar
 
I used a Half pint mason jar and it filled it half way. Once made keep in refrigerator for 1- 1/2 weeks.
 
Honey:
Helps acne & Eczema
 
Olive Oil:
Hydration
Helps under eye wrinkles
Good cleaner for oily skin
 
Lemon:
Acne Scars & Age spots
If you have very dry or sensitive skin skip the lemon juice and when going outside make sure to use SPF after putting lemon on your face.
 
Love,Emily
