Mixing it Together: Sugar Body Scrub Recipes
There are a lot of ways that you can keep the beauty that you want. This all begins with taking care of your skin, then allowing all of the nutrients to seep in, giving you the glow of youth and health. If you want to give your skin an extra boost, why not create your own spa? This will replenish your skin cells, moisturize your body and helps to achieve a soft and smooth feel. Sugar body scrubs are one of the best ways to get your skin to this point. Following are recipes you can consider for your health.
“…giving you the glow of youth and health.”
The first recipe is a combination of natural moisturizer, aromatherapy and a sugar scrub, allowing you to get the complete effect of a good at home spa treatment. You can simply apply the following:
2 cups of white cane sugar
2 cups of vegetable glycerin
1 tablespoon of aloe vera
1 teaspoon of orange extract
1 teaspoon of lavender extract
Combining different sets of ingredients can help to get an alternative effect for your at home spa. Following is a sugar scrub for brown sugar.
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons of rose hydrosol
2 tablespoons of honey
1/4 cup salt
1 teaspoon of lavender extract
With this particular recipe, you can change the type of extract. You can also add in a little extra oil, with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, allowing you to get the extra moisture that you need.
Adding in the extras to the two ingredients above can help you to get a different desired effect, depending on your skin type and what types of reactions your body might have. The main focus for each of the recipes is to keep at least half of the ingredients with sugar. You can then add in moisture, through things such as honey or oil. Adding in salt will provide your skin with a way to clear out dead skin cells. You can try to add in any of these ingredients for a different effect, while reaching the same replenishing effect.
1/4 cup almond oil
2 tablespoons of oatmeal
1 teaspoon grapefruit seed extract
4 ounces sunflower oil
After you put together a sugar scrub recipe, you will want to make sure that you are able to apply it correctly. This begins with heating the mixture in order to ensure that all of the ingredients are balanced before you apply it to your body. You will then want to make sure that the place where you are applying the sugar scrub is wet.
When using a sugar scrub recipe, it is important to be careful with your skin. If you have any cuts or sensitive areas of skin, you will want to avoid putting the scrub in the area. It can cause a sting and may cause irritation for a long period of time.
You will notice that using the sugar scrub recipes will help, especially if you are able to be consistent with the scrub. This will allow you to gain the glow that you want with your skin and will help all of your skin cells to have a breath of fresh air.
