DIY Face Scrub: Skin softening honey & oats face scrub recipe

Who wouldn’t love to make their own DIY face scrub? Honey is a natural antiseptic and is also very moisturizing, add that to the soothing effects of oats and you’ve got yourself an all natural, cleansing face scrub!

Make your own skin softening honey & oats face scrub at home with half a cup of raw oatmeal and three tablespoons of honey. Simply pour half a cup of oats into a food processor or a blender so that you can chop and refine the oats a bit more to ensure that you get a good exfoliating. Once you’ve refined your oats down a little pour them into a bowl. Take 3 tablespoons of honey and mix it in with your oats to create a thick paste-like consistency. When you’re ready to wash and exfoliate simply wet your face with some warm water to open up your pores some and then gently massage a small dollop of your honey and oats mixture into your face for about one to two minutes before rinsing with warm water and patting your face dry. Follow with a toner and moisturizer for a well balanced face regime. Store the extra honey and oats mixture in a plastic Ziploc bag or a plastic Tupperware container. Be sure you keep your mixture stored in the fridge as well because since this is a natural recipe and you haven’t added any preservatives it can go bad if you leave it in places that get warm and moist so I’d say storing it in the refrigerator would be best.
