Head to your kitchen but this time, not to cook but take care of your skin! In this article you will be finding the easiest recipe, for a miracle making scrub for your face and body, that guarantees great and long-term results. You can’t find it in stores but in your kitchen pantry. The main ingredient being olive oil.
- Face scrub:
In a bowl, mix 3 table spoons olive oil, a table spoon salt and 3-4 drops of lemon (optional)
After mixing, take some on your fingers and start slowly and softly massaging it on your face, while being more intense on your trouble areas, like the T zone (nose, forehead and chin). Don’t forget to scrub your lips too. Keep doing this for 2-3 minutes and rinse with plenty of water. Pat you face softly with some paper towels and for now you don’t have to apply any cream. Enjoy your soft and moisturized skin.
- Body scrub:
Use a bigger bowl and mix 8 table spoons of olive oil and 2 table spoons salt
Take some with your hands and start massaging it with circular motions on the parts of your body you want to better exfoliate. Let it sit for a couple of minutes and then rinse it well with plenty of water so that especially none of the salt stays on your skin. I would suggest using paper towels to tap dry your skin instead of rubbing it. The result is truly fantastic and it will last about a week while your skin will be extremely soft for days!
Scrubs and peelings like that are truly a wonderful and enjoyable way to take care of yourself and detoxify your skin as the results are immediate and you can immediately feel the benefits on you.
Be careful though as some parts of our body tend to be a little more sensitive when it comes to products and techniques like these. So, take extra care when rubbing parts such as your neck, underneath your arms, your inner thighs and belly.
Music, candles and lower lighting tend to enhance our mood to relax. It’s always a great idea to devote moments like these to ourselves, even for ten minutes a day. Also, for 10 more minutes reading your favorite book could take your mind away from reality and every day worries and will help to clear our head. This way, with renewed energy, clarity and positive thinking you can take another step into your personal evolvement.
When we take care of ourselves both on the inside and outside, we feel balanced in peace and ready for the next challenge that appears in front of us.
