5 Scrubs you NEED to make this Winter

5 SCRUBS TO KEEP YOUR SKIN AMAZING THIS WINTER

Winter is definitely the hardest season to keep your skin looking fresh and healthy because of the cold air so we've put together a list of our go-to scrubs to give your skin the boost it needs and to give you an excuse to have a pamper night.

COFFEE BODY SCRUB

- ½ Cup of Coconut Oil

- 1 Cup of Ground Coffee

- Vanilla Essential Oil

Mix all ingredients until you have a smooth even texture. Store in an airtight container and use 1 - 2 times per week... or everyday if you're a coffee addict like us ;)

Benefits: Coffee scrubs are amazing in so many ways because they not only smell divine but the caffeine in coffee will increase blood flow to your skin and can reduce the appearance of cellulite and uneven skin tone.

BROWN SUGAR & VANILLA BODY SCRUB

- ½ Cup of Brown Sugar

- ½ Cup of Coconut Oil

- ½ teaspoons of Vanilla

Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and transfer to a cute jar for storage. This decadent sugar scrub is the best for exfoliating and will keep you smelling delicious.

Benefits: Since brown sugar has finer grains and smaller particles it's a lot more gentle on the skin while still strong enough to give a good exfoliation. Because of it's softer nature brown sugar scrubs are perfect for your face and a much better option for someone with sensitive skin.

HIMALAYAN GRAPEFRUIT SALT SCRUB

- 1 cup finely ground Himalayan salt

- 1 Tablespoon of coconut oil

- 2 Tablespoon of almond oil

- Grapefruit Essential Oil (desired amount for smell)

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl, until it forms your desired consistency. Transfer to a cute glass jar, and lather yourself in this amazing scrub for your next pamper night <3

Benefits: if not for the colour alone... this is one of our FAVOURITE scrubs! Himalayan salt is purer then sea salt and contains potassium, magnesium and calcium which helps to boost circulation and is the perfect post-workout pamper to help relax and recover your muscles.

PEPPERMINT LIP SCRUB

- 1 tablespoon of Caster Sugar

- 2 x teaspoons of olive oil/jojoba oil

- A few drops of peppermint essential oil

This peppermint lip scrub is just as softening as it is delicious, and 100% edible, YUM!

Benefits: Mixing olive oil or jojoba oil into a lip scrub will give your lips a good dose fo natural moisture that will leave them feeling silky soft all day - it also gives a good base for your fave liquid lipstick. We recommend using a lip scrub before applying your makeup and leave your lips until the end to give the oils time to do their thing.

LEMON AND ROSEMARY SALT SCRUB

- 2 Cups of Coconut Oil

- 1 Cup Epsom Salts

- Approx 15-20 drops of Rosemary Essential Oil

- Approx 1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh Rosemary

- Juice of 1/2 lemon

Mix the oil and salt, to a thick consistency. Add the essential oil, fresh rosemary and and lemon juice, mix well. Store in an airtight glass jar.

Benefits: We LOVE using epsom salts in our body scrubs because they have so many amazing health benefits - one being their natural aid in sore muscles. If you've continued your workout routine through winter (you're stronger then we are... does running a netflix marathon count as a workout?) this is the scrub for you!
