Do you ever feel like your face just needs a good scrubbing? Occasionally my face will get a bit dry and needs a pick me up.
And today we focus on a treatment scrub for acne skin.
Acne is something we all deal with at some or the other point of our lives. Occasional acne isn’t that problematic but if you frequently suffer from acne and blemishes, it can leave behind nasty scars and dark spots. Acne scars can be tough to get rid off, it’s better to prevent acne on the first place. Here is a recipe for tea tree oil face scrub that can help prevent and treat acne:
As simple as can be, with ingredients that you already have in the kitchen.
Baking soda is a great scrub for cleaning the house as it does an excellent job but it is still gentle enough that it won’t scratch surfaces. This also applies to faces and skin!
Baking soda works wonderfully at removing dead skin cells and letting your healthy skin come to the surface but at the same time isn’t too harsh. Another great thing about baking soda is that it is also great for acne. If you have any pimples or break outs a simple baking soda paste can do wonders.
Tea tree is my must ingredient acne treatment! It’s a miracle worker! Tea tree (also known as Melaleuca) is anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal and it’s great at removing dirt and grim from your face all while helping reduce acne.
These two ingredients are all you need to create your face scrub!
Tea Tree Face Scrub
Ingredients:
2 tbs. baking soda
1 tbs. water
1-2 drops tea tree essential oil
Directions:
Mix all ingredients and form a paste. Add more making soda if face scrub is too thin.
Use your fingertips to apply the baking soda paste to your lightly wet face and rub in circular motions gently.
Be sure to avoid the delicate skin underneath your eyes.
Either wash of the tea tree face scrub immediately after using it as a scrub or you can choose to leave it on your face and let it act as a facial mask and then rinse. The choice is up to you!
