We all want to look young, and all over the world women spend millions on expensive anti-aging products. Microdermabrasion is one of the more popular methods of obtaining wrinkle-free, young-looking skin. Try this scrub 2 times a week and you will see awesome results. Your skin will be super exfoliated and will also be stimulated to produce more collagen. We all want those kind of results.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Mix a couple tablespoons of sugar and olive oil, honey to make a paste. Add a drop or two of water. This is the whole process of making the scrub. It's super easy, fast, and you probably already have the ingredients in your pantry.

  2. Step 2

    Start with a clean face. Wet your face with warm water. Apply the scrub on the face and rub lightly in a small circular motion. Then reverse the direction and rub again. Rinse with warm water until all traces of the mixture are gone. Follow with your favorite moisturizer.

  3. Step 3

    Repeat using the sugar scrub 2 to 3 times a week. You will immediately see glowing, brighter skin. Over time, it will be younger looking and fine lines will be less noticeable.

Tips & Warnings
  • You can use this homemade sugar scrub on your whole body. If using on the body, use a coarser sugar for better results.
  • Rub skin lightly. Do not cause irritation. If face begins to appear red or you experience a burning sensation, stop and rinse. If you have sensitive skin, use only superfine sugar on your face.
  • If you have sensitive skin, use this homemade sugar scrub only 1 time per week.
