HOME MADE- Green Tea Scrub :)

Assalamualaikum,

Hello2.. welcome to SharingIsSexy column. Have you been wondering if green tea can do wonders for our health, what about our skin?? I want to share one of the best home made scrub so far. It is a NATURAL FACIAL SCRUB that will detoxify, exfoliate and soften your skin.

Green tea can benefits our health and skin by drinking and also by being applied to the skin. Green tea is naturally high in ANTIOXIDANTS which protects the skin from free radicals. Research proved that green tea has even more antioxidants properties than vitamins. It has firming power and soothing effects, treating problems such as aging, blemishes, acne, and UV damage.

Sugar- sugar produces glycolic acid; a natural alpha hydroxy acid that exfoliates the skin. Sugar not only makes a great exfoliater but it has the power to soften the skin. It contains Glycerin which has softening effects and brightens the complexion.

Do you know why we exfoliate??

When you exfoliating, it removes dead skin cells to reveal a softer and radiant complexion. It stimulates blood flow and skin cell renewal for younger and healthier skin. It can also be used to clenase pores, break up scar tissue and rejuvenate the skin for healthy glow.

INGREDIENTS

3 table spoons of white sugar

1 tea spoon /tea bag of GREEN TEA

& ingredient of your own choice ( I used Johnsons baby oil for its nourishing effects)

 Lets start ^__^

1) Lets start with a green tea. I prefer to use a teabag because....it is simple..hehe. It doesnt really matter actually. It works the same.
2) Put the teabag in a cup and add boiling water, fill 3/4 of cup. Make sure it is BOILING water, we want out tea leaves to be soak.
3) Let the green tea cool down for about 2 minutes so it is luke warm. We also want the green tea to brew in the water and maximise in absorbing the nutrient.

4) Then add a 2 table spoon of sugar in a bowl

5) Pour the luke warm green tea in the sugar bowl.

6) Mix them slightly, and add another tea spoon of sugar into the mixture. Stir our mixture, right now it looks like white-undissolved sand. Because the green tea is warm so it will not fully dissolve the sugar.

7) And now your can add your own choice to your green tea scrub. My suggestion:

 HONEY- to moisturize

LEMON- to cleanse

YOGURT (i sooo loving yogurt) - to soothes

8) Here I choose Johnsons Baby Oils for it dramatics softness effects.
9) Add 1 teaspoon into the mixture. Mix it up. AND NOW WE'RE READY TO USE THE HOME-MADE SCRUB.

HOW TO APPLY???

USE COTTON FACE TO APPLY IT GENTLY AVOID THE EYES AND MOUTH AREA. MASSAGING YOUR FACE WITH TIP OF YOUR FINGERS GENTLY. You can apply it to your scar, it cam remove the dead skin cells as well. After 1-2 minutes of gentle exfoliating rinse off the scrub. And of course, wash off with lukewarm water. Dont forget to apply moisturizer :)

The outcome- you skin will feels smoother, toned and refreshed
