DIY: Lemon + Sugar = The Perfect Scrub

A sugar scrub is a great way to exfoliate the skin. Using lemon as one of the ingredients is even better because lemon is a natural acne fighter. It even hydrates your skin, leaving a refreshing tingle. I have personally tried this scrub, and trust me, it works wonders! It is super simple and easy to use. The ingredients, only lemon juice and sugar, are found in almost every household. So, if you have nothing to do on a Sunday night, make yourself a Lemon Scrub! Your skin will thank you ;)

Here are the steps:
1. Cleanse your face, but do not apply any toners or moisturizers
2. Turn the tap to allow a constant flow of warm water. You can splash the face with some lukewarm water, but I prefer to run a really hot stream of water and hover my face close to the sink. The purpose is to open up the pores in your skin to allow a deeper cleansing scrub.
3. Pour some lemon juice on to a cotton pad. Make it moist but do not saturate it too much! You do not want lemon juice dripping on your clothes.
4. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of sugar on to the cotton pad. Rub in the sugar, making sure that all the sugar sticks to the cotton pad.
5. Massage the cotton pad on your face. You can feel the sugars scrubbing on your face and removing those unwanted dead skin! (If you get some in your mouth, it's okay! You will just be tasting lemonade)
