CUCUMBER & MINT BODY SCRUB



In the summer, some types of skin tend to go quite dry, meaning excessive amount of moisturising. However, when you're legs are not accepting the moisturiser like you would hope them to, exfoliating I find is the way forward.


If I'm honest, I don't have the needed effort, when it's hot and sunny, to go out and buy a fancy looking body scrub, soo instead I decided to make my own. So after a look on Pinterest (find mine at @TeenJournalBlog) I finally found an easy, fresh smelling recipe and here it is.



What you will need:

- 1/2 a cucumber

- 2 teaspoons of fresh mint leaves

- 2 1/2 cups of granulated sugar

- 4 tablespoons of extra virgin oil

Like I said, it's really simple. All you have to do is blend the cucumber and mint into purée, add the sugar and oil and ta-dah! You have your own cheap body scrub which can then be left in the fridge.

To use, apply the scrub to your wherever needed and then moisturise afterwards to get the perfect, smooth skin you want.
