For some reason I've been in this weird pattern lately of working really late on Friday night. There's something about the office on Friday afternoon and evening that's so peaceful and I get so much done.
So here I am exhausted at 11:30 on a Friday night, and what sounds so good to me is a shower and scrubbing myself from head to toe with Brown Sugar Smoothie.
I love a good body scrub. In fact I launched Treat over 12 years ago with this same formula made in my kitchen. Within months of its launch Brown Sugar Smoothie was featured in Lucky Magazine and Better Homes & Gardens. It's that good!
What are some of the benefits of using a body scrub?
1. The cells on the body and face regular shed to reveal new skin. A body scrub can help you shed these skin cells to reveal the beautiful, healthy skin underneath. As we get older this process slows so a body scrub can help with this turnover.
2. A body scrub is so relaxing and makes your skin soft and moisturized.
How to make a body scrub at home:
1/4 cup sesame or grapeseed oil
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup coffee grounds (for a super charged scrub)
5-6 drops of essential oil (try orange, lavender or pink grapefruit)
Whip together all the ingredients with either a hand blender or a large spoon. Store in a mason jar, tupperware or recycle one of your cosmetic jars.
