Top 3 Reasons to Use a Facial Scrub
(If you haven’t gotten your 24% discount on your toxin-free wellness box yet, click here: Young Living Starter Kit)
1.) Removes dead skin and makeup that makeup remover and face wash alone can’t completely wipe away.
2.) With a truly clean face, your moisturizer, oils, acne treatment, etc. will be more effective.
3,) Removes any rough patches to reveal nourished, glowing skin.
Best Place to Start
As yourself the following:
1.) Is your facial scrub on this toxic list?
2.) Do you have a facial scrub?
While many on the market have harmful substances in them, don’t lose hope.
Thankfully you have some great options for a clean and safe toxin-free scrub!
Option 1:
Daily Scrub
If you want to scrub daily, you’ll need something extra gentle.
Try this DIY to make sure you’re only sloughing off dead skin cells and not damaging your face.
1/2 C baking soda
4 TBS hempseed oil
10 drops of the following:
Orange essential oil
Bergamot essential oil
Lavender essential oil
5 drops Young Living Cypress essential oil
5 drops Young Living Tea Tree essential oil.
Mix together and store in a glass jar. Make sure to apply gently. Let the scrub do the work!
You can choose whichever essential oils you need for your particular skin, but I chose these because I have oily skin that is prone to breakouts.
Hempseed oil is the only carrier oil that doesn’t break out my face, and I find that this ratio of baking soda and hempseed keeps the scrub super gentle.
Option 2:
If you’re looking for a scrub 2-3 times per week, this Satin Facial Scrub is where it’s at.
Polish and prep your skin with this naturally derived face scrub.
Made with apricot seed powder,Satin Facial Scrub gently exfoliates your face to lift and remove dry, dead skin cells and reveal bright, even-looking skin.
Use it to start the day or to take the day off; whenever you reach for it, you’ll leave a clean, smooth slate for the next step in your skin care regimen.
This exfoliating scrub was formulated to bring you a natural way to cleanse and reveal glowing, radiant skin.
With a new formula and carefully selected ingredients—including mango butter and raspberry extract, you’ll feel confident adding this gentle face exfoliator to your skin care routine, along with Young Living’s other naturally derived personal care products.
Plus, it has pure Peppermint essential oil for a minty scent and tingly fresh feel.
