On Tuesday, I shared three cheap ways to even out your skin tone, and give it that glow we all love. Today I'm going to share three more products: Two exfoliators and one moisturizer.
Exfoliation should be an essential part of your skin care regimen. It will help remove dead skin cells as well as other impurities clogging your skin. The first product I want to share with you is brown sugar.
Brown Sugar
Brown sugar is excellent because it does not contain any chemical preservatives that can harm your skin. It also contains glycolic acid which is important for maintaining healthy skin, which is found in many expensive products. Glycolic acid cleans your pores, prevents dead cells from clumping and will even our your skin tone. Why pay $$$ when you can get it in brown sugar??
Directions: Use 3 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 table spoon of honey and 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar regularly as a facial scrub. You'll be amazed at your skin's glow.
Baking Soda
This is best for people with oily skin, such as myself. Baking soda's antiseptic properties heal inflamed skin. It also contains forms of Vitamin C which is great for the skin. This is perfect for a deep cleansing scrub after taking off your makeup. It will hydrate your skin and increase its elasticity.
Directions: Make a paste out of baking soda and water, and apply to the skin. Scrub with your fingers if you please. Wash off, and pat skin dry. Your skin will feel velvety smooth afterwards.
This can be drying so be sure to follow up with a moisturizer afterwards.
Coconut oil
Coconut oil contains Vitamin E and K, lauric acid and saturated fats which make it excellent for hair and skin. It is an excellent moisturizer which can treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and dermatisis. You can also use it as a makeup remover.
