Okay so, A lot of us have new years resolutions to eat healthy, drink more water and stuff like that, but for the chocolate lovers out there, this can be a hard task. One thing that I love to make though is a chocolate body scrub. In some way I feel as though it tricks your mind making it easier to not crave chocolate as much. Maybe it's just me. Anyhow, lets get started!
Ingredients-
Whats in it for me-
Chocolate- believe it or not, chocolate helps with clearing up your skin when applied to your face. It detoxifies your skin while sloughing of the dead skin to reveal the beautiful skin underneath. It really helps to add a nice glow to your skin because of all the antioxidants it has in it. It protects the skin from the sun (because, believe it or not, you can still get sunburned in the winter) which helps with blocking out harmful UV/UVB rays as well as skin cancer.
Sugar- Sugar is a natural exfoliate and it won't clog your pores if you use it on your skin (like what we are doing here). It helps to get rid of blemishes and acne as well as restores the balance of oils on your skin.
Olive Oil- Olive oil is great for moisturizing dry skin as well as amping up the glow on your skin. It helps protect the skin from UV/UVB rays.
Directions-
Mix 1 cup of brown sugar in with 1 cup of white sugar in a small container. In a separate container combine 1/2 cup of olive oil with 1 tsp of vanilla, 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1 tbsp of baking cocoa. Mix the liquids and then combine it with the sugars.
Finished Product-
I love this body scrub and I hope you guys do to! If you have any review requests or tutorial ideas (: See ya soon!!
