Ingredients:
½ Cup Raw Almonds
3 Tablespoons Pure Honey
Prep:
Grind the almonds in a coffee grinder until you have a coarse powdery substance like sand. Otherwise, you can crush the almonds with a rolling pin or empty wine bottle though it may take more time to do so but it will still work! Combine about 1 Tablespoon of ground almonds with the honey and blend well. You can save the excess ground almonds in an air-tight container and use again in a mask later in the week. Once you have the face mask scrub ready, apply to your clean face and neck and gently massage in a circular motion with your fingertips on your skin for 1-2 minutes. When finished, rinse off the scrub with warm water and a little gentle cleanser. Gently pat your face dry then apply an oil-free moisturizer for added moisture for your skin.
Benefits:
This scrub is wonderful for anyone that suffers from dry skin. Almonds, particularly the oil from almonds, will make your skin feel smooth and soft. Grinding the almonds into a paste makes this particularly ideal to exfoliate dead skin cells from your face and neck, which removes impurities and oil that cause acne. Your pores will also become unclogged with this amazing natural exfoliator.
Pure honey contains amazing antioxidants proven to help reduce impurities from the skin and help battle mild acne. It also helps restore skin’s texture due to its anti-microbial properties, and will help repair skin damage from the sun and daily environments. You will love the way your skin feels after using this honey almond scrub! Enjoy!
