HOMEMADE CAMWOOD BODY SCRUB

Hurray! Summer is here. 
My favourite time of the year, the sun shining is enough to make me go giddy with happiness. Why wont I be? The burden of layers of winter clothing being lifted off my shoulders is  a joyous occasion for me. But the multitude of skin issues hidden in winter will now come to the fore. So we need to get  clear those and  step into summer with flawless skin.
So here is something effective and easy to make. You don’t need loads of ingredients, it doesn't cost a lot, and it takes little time to make. So what are we waiting for?

Here are the ingredients you’ll need

  • Sugar- You can use brown or white. This is to exfoliate and get rid of those dead skin, making room for new ones to come to the surface. Make sure it is the really tiny grain ones though; we won’t want you tearing your facial skin.
  • Sweet Almond Oils-  A light non greasy option compare to some other oils, this will penetrate into your skin quickly and it is not as expensive as its counterparts.
  • Lemon Zest (Optional)- This will help removes impurities found in skin cells. 
  • Lavender Essential Oil-  This is necessary because it is an effective treatment for dry and chapped skin. And it smells gorgeous.
  • Raw Honey-   This is a natural moisturizer, need I say more. That Honey is good for the skin is an issue that has been over thrashed. Make sure you use raw honey.
  • An Empty Jar- You need this to store your body scrub when done.




STEP BY STEP GUIDE


Measure and pour 200g sugar into a mixing bowl


Add 2 tbs of Camwood Powder to the Sugar and mix thoroughly


Add 2 tbs of Raw Honey, you might want to warm it a bit to make it easier to mix. Then mix , 
it might take a while but it will mix.


Then Add 60ml of sweet Almond Oil and 5-6 drops of Lavender Essential Oil. And mix again.


Now grate the lemon and add the zest to the mix, combine.


Scoop the mix into the empty jar.


This is your Amazing Camwood Body Scrub.  


Now you have it. And summer just got better. Remember this is great for lips, face and the whole body.

Piece of cake, right?
