Super Simple DIY Facial Cleansing Scurb

0

I took a little time last week to replenish a few skin care items and I thought a few other moms might be interested in this one. Below, I will share a super simple DIY facial cleansing scrub. 

What you’ll need

plastic mixing bowl

plastic mixing spoon

8oz jar with a lid*

*you want to make sure you can get your finger in all the way to the bottom 

Raw Ingredients: 

1/2c of apricot kernel oil

1 1/2c of fine organinc cane sugar

1/2c of Dr. Bronner’s liquid castile soap*

10-15 drops of preferred essential oil**

*this my go to when I don’t have the time to make my own. Any liquid soap you feel confident using on your face will work. 

** I generally use lavender and tea tree essential oils for this recipe. 10 drops of lavender and 5 drops of tea tree. 

I scooped the excess out of the bowl and used it right away.

Directions: 

Combine all raw ingredients into your mixing bowl

mix well with your mixing spoon 

pour in to you scrub into you jar and enjoy!

I don’t recommend using this product more than three times weekly. Always use a DRY finger or utensil to scoop it out. I have been able too store this product with bio problem for over six month when I am sure not to introduce water. If you choose to add essential oils store your scrub in a amber jar and keep out of direct sunlight. The ingredients may separate over time. If the sugar settle on the bottom just give it a little stir. All of these ingredient can be purchased locally. If you stop in at Good Earth tell Rudy I sent you. 

I found this little four ounce mason jar at Hobby Lobby. Cheap and easy to reuse. If you choose clears glass and use essential oils be sure to store in a dark place for long term storage.

I hope you decide to give this recipe a try. If you do, be sure to let us know how you like it. Try it on your legs and arms too. You’ll be summer time fine!
