Benefits of Brown Sugar, Honey and Coconut Oil for Your Skin

Honey can be used to treat puffy eyes, eczema, and acne. Sugar is a soothing ingredient in any body scrub. Sugar’s gritty texture works as an exfoliant to gently buff away dead skin and give your face a healthy glow.

Brown Sugar:

• Gently exfoliates dead skin cells
• Boosts skin’s natural glow

Honey:

• Soothes irritation and redness
• Hydrates and softens the skin as a natural humectant
• Fights acne with its antibacterial properties

Coconut Oil:

• Moisturizing: Deeply hydrates and softens dry skin.
• Antibacterial: Helps fight acne and skin infections.
• Anti-Inflammatory: Soothes irritation and reduces redness.

While you can use any kind of honey you like, the raw stuff has nutrients and antioxidants that nourish skin and encourage healing.

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Your Honey Brown Sugar Scrub

Here’s what you’ll need:

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar, light or dark both work fine
• 1/3 cup coconut oil
• 2 teaspoons raw honey 

Supplies

• Food processor
• Small jars with lids

Step 1: Add the ingredients to your food processor.

Step 2: Process just until the scrub is blended and has a creamy consistency.

Step 3: Stir in any additional add-ins,(i.e cinnamon, cayenne or essential oils. )

Step 4:Scoop out and portion your sugar scrub in airtight containers.

Helpful tip: Add a dash of cinnamon or cayenne if you want to target cellulite. Start with a tiny, tiny amount because it’s easy to overdo it and wind up with irritated skin, which sort of defeats the purpose. It’s important to note you should avoid using cinnamon or cayenne on your face, as these ingredients can irritate sensitive skin.

Keep this scrub for your body only.

Tips for Using and Storing Your Scrub

Using your homemade sugar scrub is simple and effective. Gently massage it onto damp skin in circular motions to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. You can apply it to your face, hands, feet, or body—just avoid sensitive areas if you’ve added cinnamon or cayenne. The honey and coconut oil will leave your skin feeling moisturized and soft. Rinse off with warm water and pat your skin dry for a glowing, refreshed feel.

To store your sugar scrub, keep it in an airtight container to maintain freshness. It should last a very long time if stored in a cool, dry place. If you’re using it in the shower, make sure no water gets into the container to prevent bacteria growth. For even longer-lasting scrubs, refrigerate them, but always make a fresh batch if you notice any changes in texture or smell.
