I don't know about you but cold weather makes my skin dry.  I am normally a black soap girl when it comes to washing my face each morning, but during the winter months I just can't.  It is too drying and I always end up putting whipped shea butter on my face before I walk out the door.  Well I have found a solution!  It's so simple, just coconut oil and baking soda.  I was a bit skeptical in the beginning but my skin immediately loved this scrub.  It is cleansing and moisturizing and heals pimples or scars very quickly.  Where has this been all my life?  

Coconut Oil and Baking Soda Facial Scrub:
  • 2 Tablespoons or Baking Soda
  • 1 Tablespoon of Coconut Oil

For those with drier skin:
  • 3 Tablespoons of Baking Soda
  • 2 Tablespoons of Coconut Oil

Place the ingredients in a bowl and mix by hand.  The coconut oil will melt into a creamy consistency.  A little goes a long way, rub the mixture onto your face and neck and rinse off with warm water.  Have you ever tried this scrub?  If so, please tell me your thoughts.

I think you can tell by now that I love creating and mixing things together.  Whether it's food, drinks, hair or skincare products, I'm always experimenting.  Today's recipe is for a facial scrub.  This is actually my favorite facial skincare product.  When I first made it I didn't realize how well it would work but the brown sugar really exfoliates your skin, the baking soda cleanses your pores and the honey leaves it feeling hydrated and moisturized.  I love it so much I want to share it with you.  Do you have a facial scrub recipe that you make?  If you decide to try this one please let me know how it turns out.

Brown Sugar and Honey Facial Scrub
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Baking Soda
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup Honey
2 drops Frankincense essential oil
2 drops Lavender essential oil

​Mix all of the ingredients together.  A little goes a long way so just scoop out some in the palm of your hands and rub it on your face in a circular motion.  Make sure you don't leave out the area under your chin or your neck.  Rinse with water and admire your beauty.
