Natural Skin Treatments To Keep You Looking Young

Scrub Your Skin

To keep young, we need to slough off the old. The best way to use sugar or salt in your home is to make scrubs with them. Use fine grain sugar for delicate skin, such as on the face; standard grain salt or sugar for large surface areas of skin, such as the legs; and coarse salt for rough skin, like heels and elbows.

Combine one cup of white sugar, half a cup of solid coconut oil, half a teaspoon of any preferred essential oil, and a splash of water for a smoother texture. Apply to the desired area and wash all those unwanted skin cells away while moisturizing.
