Brown Sugar is your friend!

So recently I tweeted about home treatments of brown sugar and honey lip scrub and a brown sugar body scrub. Here is the step by step for you create these wonderful treatments at home:

Natural Brown Sugar/Honey Lip Scrub:

• pinch of brown sugar


• pinch of honey

Mix together to create a paste between your fingers and rub lightly over lips. Rinse with cool water. Yes licking it off would be just as effective but the acids in your saliva will dry out your lips...so try try to use the water and not your tongue.

Natural Brown Sugar Body Scrub:

• a cup of brown sugar

Before you start your shower water, step into your tub with the cup of brown sugar. Rub small amounts over your body, taking extra time at elbows/knees/heels. You do not need to rub hard. Then rinse off in the shower. The sugar will dissolve and not cause your drain to clog.

Why natural brown sugar vs brown sugar or white sugar...? Natural brown sugar is the first step of processing from the sugar cane plant, it has a higher molasses content, and higher mineral content. Another benefit is the natural glycolic properties. Glycolic is great for anti-agin, it's hydrating, and helps to normalize skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

I hope you enjoy your home treatments!
