Homemade Sugar Body Scrub!!!

Happy New Year Everyone!!!! For 2015 my goal is to treat myself better, and do more things for myself!! Last year I got rid of my Acne and have been keeping up with my skin care pretty well, and I will continue to share my journey and share products that work for me. I will also share other products that I like.

Recently my mom made a Sugar Body Scrub, and I tried it and loved how it made my skin feel. I Love Natural products, so you know I had to Share!!!! The Scrub is super easy to make and you can add in your favorite oils and scents. The Scrub that my mom made, was Cinnamon, and it seriously smells like fresh baked cookies!!! But, if you don't like the smell of Cinnamon, then you can make it whatever scent you like!! (I know I said that twice... haha)

All you need is:
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Coconut Oil (you can use Almond oil or Olive oil as well)
And add about 10 drops of the Essential oil of your choice
Lastly Stir together and put in a container and it's ready to use!!

It's so simple!

    This is how it looks.... It is brown, because my mom add not just Cinnamon oil, but actual Cinnamon as well. There is also Nutmeg and Vanilla (about a teaspoon of each)

Usually it will look White in color....

This recipe was found on mom4real.com
They did a Peppermint Oil Sugar Scrub, placed it in Mason Jars decorated them and Sent them as gifts. (Super Cute right!!)

What I love about using the scrub, was because there is Coconut oil in it, it made me feel pretty moisturized before getting out of the shower. I didn't have to use as much Lotion, and my skin felt so soft and smooth. Everyone likes smooth skin right!!!!

Try it and let me know if you like it :) Treat your Body and skin right this year!!!! Any little bit helps!!

Skin Care Part 2!!!!

So I did a post a couple of weeks ago about my skin, how I have had Acne for years, and I have recently found products that have worked well for me and my skin is so much clearer now! It is truly an exciting feeling for me that I have been able to Finally have clear skin and not have to worry so much about so many break outs.

I have something else to add that I just started doing about a week ago.... How it started, was me and a fellow blogger were talking at an event recently about makeup, which lead in to skin care. We talked about different things that we have used and have tried, and there were a lot of similarities, and she also told me about a friend of her's that had the same issue as me and she used Vitamin E gel on her Face. I was very interested to see how it would work for my self. She told me about a gel, but I remembered that I had Vitamin E gel Capsules, and wondered if it would do the same....

I cut open a Capsule one night (after my daily cleansing routine) and rubbed the gel all over my face before going to sleep. It is pretty thick stuff FYI... After the first couple of days I noticed that my skin was getting smoother, and that the little bumps that I had were going away. I got really excited and I have been using it for over a week now....

These are the soft gels that I used. I purchased them from Target.

Here's what my skin looks like after almost a week of using Vitamin E.... I do have on a little make up (Powder and blush, but that is it... Oh yea and I did my eyebrows), other then that I broke out a tiny bit on my Forehead, but you can see that my skin is smoothing out.

I hope that others try Vitamin E on their skin as well, and let me know how it works for them! :D
