I recently used up my expensive exfoliator and my mom said she wouldn't buy me another so I was wondering if anyone out there on Y!Answers had a recipe to a homemade exfoliator?

Thanks!!

Answer 1

I have a few sites i keep handy for homeade masks and exfoliators check them out but first ask your mom if shell buy you St ives apricot scrub I have tried so many products and this stuff works the best $2 dollars at big lots!! i think 3 dollars at wal mart last me 2-3 months St ives offers sensative skin blackheads/blemishes or regular youve got to try it!! Here are two of my favorite natural exfoliators

1.Take out a mixing bowl and fill it with eight to ten ripe or over-ripe strawberries.
Squash the strawberries until they become soft and mushy. Then combine two tablespoons of olive oil and one teaspoon of coarse salt until you have a paste.
Next, massage the paste onto your body, focusing on any super-dry or dull looking skin areas. Rub well and then rinse off with warm water. Your skin will feel instantly softer, smoother and shinier!
2.Just take sugar and mix it with extra virgin olive oil. Scrub. Rinse. And tada....you get great glowing skin that is oh so soft. Try it and you'll be addicted, garanteed!

Answer 2

1 cup granulated brown sugar (raw brown sugar might be too abrasive, though appropriate for calloused areas of the body)
* ½ cup jojoba oil (or extra virgin olive oil)
* 2 tablespoons honey
1/2 Lemon juice squeezed

Directions:

Mix ingredients together in a bowl. To save the unused portion, transfer to plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Make sure to store unused portion in cool, dry location and stir before reusing.

Pure, unprocessed brown sugar is derived from sugar cane juice, a natural source of glycolic acid. But even if you buy the more processed variety, the granular texture of brown sugar will help to remove dirt and toxins from the skin's outer layer, gently exfoliating dead cells. The scrub will also help improve blood flow to the skin's surface, while jojoba oil will sink in to replenish lost moisture. Honey will help to bind the ingredients while acting as a natural antimicrobial. Honey's healing powers have been valued since ancient times. Today modern science is rediscovering its dermatological benefits, including its enzymatic ability to stimulate new cell growth.

We're sweet on this beauty recipe not just for its results but also for the relaxing ritual of its application. The subtle molasses scent will remind you of oatmeal cookies, enlivening your senses while you invigorate your circulation and give your skin a healthy glow.

Answer 3

I use baking soda. It's the best. I've used the most expensive and I always go back to baking soda. I mix it with my cleanser and massage it on my face and my skin feels so smooth afterwards. Good luck. 2D
