oatmeal moisturizing facial scrub recipe!


Like a lot of you, I want to take care of my skin. A lot of soaps dry my skin out, leaving my face feeling tight. But, good news! I discovered a great facial scrub recipe. It's easy to make and chances are you have the ingredients to make your own face scrub inside your kitchen cabinet! In my healing arts practice I use oatmeal and aloe to create the perfect facial scrub and mask. Oatmeal is hypoallergenic and chock-full of the amino-acids that help to keep your skin moisturized.

To create the perfect oatmeal face scrub you’ll need—

2 tablespoons of ground oats
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Aloe vera
1 teaspoon lemon juice (or 2 teaspoons if your skin is extra oily)

Place the ground oats, aloe vera and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Squeeze in the lemon juice and stir the ingredients together until the oatmeal scrub has an even and smooth consistency. Massage the scrub into damp skin with gentle circular motions. Allow the scrub to set in to the skin for about 10 minutes before rinsing.

This facial scrub is a great way to keep your face looking young and healthy. In fact, each ingredient has healing properties. Oatmeal is perfect for people with sensitive skin because it is a natural anti-inflammatory and very gentle. The brown sugar helps to remove dead skin cells, while the lemon juice unclogs your pores and eliminates acne. Aloe vera is particularly famous for its soothing effects, but is also a natural cleanser and moisturizer.

When these ingredients are combined together, you’ll get a wonderful facial scrub that exfoliates, cleanses, and soothes dry or itchy skin. You’ll feel great inside and out!

And in case you're wondering where to get aloe vera you can pick up a bottle of the pure gel online thru us at solavedi or, if you've got a green thumb grow an Aloe vera plant at home! Just snip off an inch of one of the long green arms and squeeze the juice out.
