You now know the hair treatments and skin masks that I do at home, using only ingredients from the kitchen. Time to move onto the neck down and see the body treatments I use as well!
Hand & Foot Exfoliant
Ingredients:
4-6 ripe Strawberries
1 tsp of Coarse Salt (you
may use sea salt or kosher salt)
2 tbsp Olive Oil
Mash up the strawberries,
and then add in the rest of the ingredients. Mix them all together. Now scrub
all over hands and feet. Rinse off and enjoy your soft skin. The natural fruit
acid in strawberries is a gentle exfoliant. You can add the leftovers to a
sealed container in the fridge and it will last a week.
Softening Foot Mask
Ingredients:
2 cucumbers
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp olive oil
Mash all the ingredients.
(This will be faster and easier if you use a blender.) Split the mixture
in half and pour each half into a plastic bag. Wrap the bags over each foot.
Massage them into your skin and relax for ten minutes.
Body Moisturizing Mask
Ingredients:
2 avocados mashed
3 table spoons sea salt
1/4 cup honey
2 whole lemons (rinds and
juice)
1/4 cup coconut or olive
oil (but you should have already bought coconut oil after I told you how
amazing it is!
Apply to skin and let sit
for ten to fifteen minutes. (Don't let anyone walk into your bathroom while you do
this, could be super awkward). Now hop in the shower, scrub and rinse. If you
have extra you can put it in a container in the fridge and do this again in
two or three days.
Tropical Body Scrub
Ingredients:
3-4 large grapefruits
4 to 5 tablespoons of
coconut or olive oil
1/2 cup sea salt
Cut the grapefruits in half
and squeeze out all the juice into a bowl. Now take the grapefruits and rub
them on extra dry areas like knees, elbows and feet. Back to the bowl of juice,
mix in the oil and salt. Use that before you get into the shower as a full body
scrub.
Caffeine Body Scrub
Ingredients:
1 cup coffee grounds
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup salt
1/8 cup olive or coconut
oil
Many believe coffee can help reduce cellulite and varicose veins. True? Maybe. But either way this scrub won't make them worse and will definitely leave you smooth and soft!
