Brighten Skin Naturally

Summer's ending pretty quickly, and all the wonderful sun exposure from going to the beach, bike riding downtown, and going to carnivals has probably taken a toll on your skin. You can't see it (unless you have a sun damage detecting light) , but you can be your skins best friend by treating it to this Papaya and Oatmeal Body Scrub. The Papaya in the body scrub acts as a skin refresher and will make your skin glow. Papayas are rich in vitamins A, E, C (antioxidants) that are good for removing dark spots and promoting healthy skin. And the Oatmeal helps as a skin softener and soother. Enjoy this mini spa treatment!


What You Will Need :

- Bowl
- Spoon/Mixer
- Papaya (1/2)
- 1/4 cup Oatmeal
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1/2 tablespoon of Olive Oil
- Blender
- Storing Container

1. Blend papaya until smooth, then mix in oatmeal (or blend for a smoother scrub, but not to much!)

2. Now mix in honey and olive oil, mix gently so not to make scrub too soft.

3. Now put in container to be used later.

Apply to moistened (with water) skin, however do this before washing body! Papaya will gently exfoliate the skin.


*This is a mild scrub that isn't abrasive, however the acid from the papaya can take a toll on your skin if skin is washed before using. Use with caution, especially if you have sensitive skin. Talk with your dermatologist to see if this would be perfect for you. If you start to break out or have any allergic reactions  to any of the ingredients, discontinue using *
