A few weeks ago Ally invited the girls over for a spa night. Ally is a genius at finding home recipes and affordable all-natural alternatives to the overpriced drugstore cleansers/moisturizers/exfoliaters etc. One of my favourite things we did as a jojoba oil and sugar scrub. There's only two ingredients, it is so easy to do. I bought a bottle of jojoba oil from a health supply store near my apartment, it was $13.99 for 118mL.
Just combine the jojoba oil and sugar in a bowl, scrub your face with it. Ta- da! The oil has a mild smell and you can add a couple drops of essential oil such as lavender if you'd like a more fragrant scrub. Use the scrub before bed for optimal results. It's best not to put on make-up right after using this as your make-up won't stay.
