My favorite homemade body lotion to use in the winter to help my skin look and feel the best is my homemade almond oil sugar lotion. It smells heavenly and works amazingly well as it exfoliates the dead scaly layer on my body to reveal the smooth glowing skin underneath. The scrub also contains natural-moisturizer in it to help condition the skin so that it can be soft and well hydrated.
In the natural ingredients I use, I usually boil my almond oil, 1 cup of almond oil, 2 tablespoons of almond extract, 1 teaspoon vanilla bean seeds< /a>, 2 cups of white sugar and a cup of ground almonds or almond powder. These ingredients can be found at your local grocery store, as well as an herbal or whole food store. The ingredients can be expensive, but many make an almond oil sugar scrub.
I make the almond oil sugar syrup by taking almond oil sugar scrub 1 cup almond oil, almond extract 2 tablespoon vanilla bean seeds 1 teaspoon white seeds, 2 cups white sugar and 1 cup ground almonds. placing the almond powder in a large bowl. Then I combined the ingredients with a large spoon, until I got the oil itself, a stoney, golden mixture that has a very sweet smell. If you find that the sugar scrub is too liquid, add more sugar until you get the thickness and texture of the scrub you want. Once the scrub is made, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week until you want to use it. I advise you to use it correctly, because I find it better with a fresh bush.
I find the best way to use this almond oil is to shave off sugar, by stepping into a hot shower and soaking the skin in plenty of hot water. These cleanse and soften the skin, making it easier to exfoliate If you find yourself in the shower and use a shaver immediately, it usually works well and also use your skin to make it red And they irritated. Anyway, after your skin has been washed with warm water, you can take a handful or two of almond oil scrub and start to rub and rub it on your skin and body from head to toe using circular motions. The circular motion really helps to get dry dead skin skin soft. When you are done exfoliate your skin and you can scrub your body with warm water and pat your skin dry. After that you will have silky the most burning skin to show off.
Next time you need a good soaking sugar syrup go to the kitchen and make homemade almond oil sugar syrup. It’s better for your skin and body than the drugstore stuff because it doesn’t contain any harsh chemicals. It is easier to contain in that they help keep skin young and beautiful looking.
