Strawberries & Cream Exfoliant Scrub
Aren't the strawberries great this year? We've been stopping by this little stand near our house every week, buying an entire flat. Sooo good.
If you have a bunch of strawberries in the house like we do, try this wonderful scrub to smooth, soften, and brighten your complexion. Strawberries contain alpha hydroxy acids that dissolve away dead skin cells. Cream soothes tired, dry skin, while honey deeply cleanses.
Strawberries & Cream Exfoliant Scrub
1/8 cup chopped strawberries
1 tablespoon heavy cream
2 tablespoons coarsely ground oats
1 teaspoon cornmeal (fine masa type works best)
1 teaspoon honey
In a small bowl, mash strawberries until fairly smooth. Stir in remaining ingredients. Allow the ingredients to rest for five minutes. Stir well. At this point you may add more cream or more oats to get the desired consistency.
To use: Massage well over cleansed face, neck, and chest. Let set three to five minutes. Remove with a washcloth and warm water.
Yield: 1 treatment
