How to Make a Honey and Sugar Face Scrub wikiHow

WEBDec 21, 2023 · 1. Dampen your fingers, and apply the scrub on your face and neck. Gently massage in circles around your face for 45 seconds. …

1. Use raw honey. Make sure you are using raw honey that has not been treated and is unpasteurized. You can find raw honey at health food stores, farmer’s markets, and online. Using raw honey, as opposed to the bottled honey you get in grocery stores, will ensure it is natural and toxin free. You will also reap more of the medicinal benefits of the honey by using it in raw form. Before you use honey on your skin, you want to make sure you are not allergic to honey. You can do this by getting an allergy test done at your doctor’s office. You can also do a spot test on your skin to ensure you do not have an allergic reaction. Place a small amount of honey on your hand or a section of your skin that can be covered up. Wait one hour. If you do not have an allergic reaction, such as itchiness, redness, or swelling, you can likely proceed with the honey and sugar scrub.
2. Scoop 1 ½ tablespoons of honey into a small bowl or plate. Add more if you’d like to use the scrub/mask on your neck as well.
3. Add 1 ½ tablespoons of ultra fine baking sugar to the honey. Make sure it is not too thick. You can also use brown sugar. The crystals in fine baking and brown sugar are softer than regular table sugar.
4. Add 3-5 droplets of fresh lemon juice for freshness. This is an optional step. Make sure you use a fresh lemon as older lemons have added ascorbic acid which can cause more harm than help.
