diy lemon body scrub

May 4, 2015 by Lindsey Leave a Comment

My skin has taken a beating this year. I’m fairly certain it’s the extreme Colorado dryness mixed with the hard water in our house that’s the culprit. I battled a small bout of eczema a few months ago too and have more dry bumps and redness than I’ve ever experienced before.

Homemade Lemon Body Scrub Recipe

I’ve made more wintery scrubs in the past, but wanted a springy smelling one to start attacking the problem, ya know because it’s shorts and t-shirt weather now and something had to be done.

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
Juice from 1 lemon – about 2 tbsp.

DIY Lemon Body Scrub Ingredients

Method

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir. Mix well until everything is combined. I add a little more olive oil to mine to make it a tad more moisturizing. You can adjust to your liking.

Also, mine looks brownish because I used raw sugar instead of white. But really, I don’t care what it looks like, just that it works. I’ve only used it once and I already notice a difference!

Lemon Scrub

Tip: when you get out of the shower after using the scrub just pat your skin dry instead of rubbing. It allows the oil to remain on your skin to moisturize.
