Instructions

    • 1

      Get the plastic bag and place the avocado pit inside. Seal it shut and use the hammer to break the avocado pit into small pieces, approximately the size of a pea.

    • 2

      Leave these pieces out on the counter for 3 to 5 days or until they are dry. Grind them in a food processor or by using a plastic bag and hammer, until they are the consistency of a fine grain.

    • 3

      Add ½ of a banana and 1 tbsp of olive oil to the food processor. Blend them together until it creates a thick paste. Add more olive oil if needed.

    • 4

      Remove the paste from the food processor and massage it gently onto your face. It is not necessary to push the scrub hard on your skin since the avocado pit will exfoliate your skin on its own.

    • 5

      Use warm water to remove the scrub and then splash your face with cold water to seal your pores closed. Dry your skin by tapping a towel lightly around your face. Enjoy your clean, smooth skin!
