Fresh Orange Sugar Scrub

updated: Aug.11 2016  Refreshing, Moisturizing, Softening ....Perfect skin pick-me-up!
This scrub can be used on both your body and face. 
It will hydrate and exfoliate, allowing the much needed moisture 
to absorb into your skin, leaving you feeling fresh, smooth and your skin glowing.

1)  Put desired amount of sugar, ( white or brown ) in a small bowl.

2) Add natural oil of choice: grapeseed absorbs well and is light, 
     olive oil is a bit heavier for extra moisturizing. Oils that are good for facials as they do not
     clog pores are: sunflower, argan, and hemp. Apricot, sweet almond and Jojoba are great too.

3) Add the juice of a fresh squeezed orange

4) Add 1 Tbl honey (warmed so it will mix in well).  Stir all ingredients.


 Your texture should be like applesauce:
 

You can make this in single use amounts for optimal yummy freshness, or a larger batch and keep it refrigerated.........I never make more than I can use up in a week. 

Apply to your skin in circular motions, gently exfoliating. Rinse in warm water, then a splash of cold!  
Pat dry.  You will LOVE the smooth, moisturized feel of your skin!



Enjoy......  Anna
