All-Natural Facial Scrub



                This is one skin-care method I swear by. All you need is lemon juice, sugar and a cotton pad. Yup, that's it. You don't need to spend a thousand dollars on skin products, you can just open up your refrigerator!
                 The acid in the lemon works effectively to kill any bacteria and remove blackheads, acne, discolouration, anything like that off your skin and the sugar works as a natural exfoliant to remove the dead skin cells. So what does that add up to? Clear skin, duuuuh.

1. Wash your face with warm water to open up your pores. This will allow the scrub to clean deeper into your pores.
2. Take a cotton pad and dampen it with lemon juice.
3. Put about half a teaspoon of sugar on the cotton pad.
4. Scrub your face in circular motions. Take your time as you move around your entire face.
5. Rinse off your face with cold water to seal the pores and lock in the moisture.
6. You're done!

                You can use this scrub once a week, twice a week, whatever you feel works best for your skin. I personally use this twice a week, because I have sensitive skin. Plus, it's not the best idea to exfoliate your skin every day, because you're literally removing a layer of skin, so it can cause over dryness and irritation if used exceedingly.
                Best thing about this scrub, it's all natural. No harsh chemicals, no nothing expect all natural ingredients that you can find in your own household. 
                Thanks for reading, have a great day!
