Do It Yourself

I'm a very artistic person. I am heavily involved in music, and I love drawing. 'Crafting' is something that I really love to do! Everything you create is unique, and there are endless things to make. I have always been into scrap-booking, but lately I have drifted into like card making and DIY's. 



Sugar Scrub
A few days ago, my friend Sarah told me about a Sugar Scrub that she had used. I had read about them on the internet, and they seemed easy enough to do! So I decided to make one. I thought my skin was soft before. But now, my skin is actually glowing and it is probably 5x softer than before. I cant believe it! I used it on my face, arms and legs. It can be used pretty much all over your body, but be careful around your eyes and any other sensitive areas.


Ingredients: White Sugar, Brown Sugar, Olive Oil or Vegetable Oil, Lime juice (optional) and Water













The citrus in the lime is great for your skin. You could use a few drops of lemon or orange juice as well.



2/3 cups of sugar



1/2 cup of brown sugar



Pour them into a bowl so that they are somewhat layered.



Measure the oil


Pour the oil, and about a teaspoon full of lime juice into your sugar mixture and then stir it all up!



Depending on the moisture of your brown sugar, you may need to add some water. I did, and this is what my sugar scrub looked like!


Rub in circular motions on your skin


Happy scrubbing!
