Homemade Summer Shaving Scrub
I never get my legs out, literally never! Well until this summer, it's been absolutely boiling I couldn't not! But I've always been funny with showing off my legs, partly due to eczema scars, and partly due to being overweight! But this year my legs have been on show for all to see (or run and hide from! Haha)
You probably all know by now that I love making homemade scrubs and body products, and one of my favourite products I ever made is this -
Homemade Summer Shaving Scrub!
It exfoliates your legs, helps you to get a closer shave and give you smooth fuzz free legs!
For this shaving scrub you will need:
* 1 & 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
* 1 cup oil (coconut oil, baby oil, olive oil)
* 3 large tbs lemon juice
Sugar is a natural exfoliant, something I generally use in most of my body products. It's fantastic at drawing moisture into your skin, leaving you fresh and rejuvenated. The oil helps with shaving, and giving you super soft legs. The lemon juice helps tighten, lighten & brighten your skin!
(Although this homemade scrub is made of natural products, I still wouldn't recommend using it in your intimate areas, or arm pits! Just legs and arms.)
1. Add all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix well, really well.
2. Pop the mixture into a cute jar
3. You can use the scrub on dry or wet skin, but I recommend getting your legs wet first and then doing it. So just pop the shower on for a minute or so and turn it off again.
4. Slather your legs in the scrub, and shave! You don't need to wash off the scrub to shave.
5. Add some more scrub, and shave again!
6. Wash the scrub off well and moisturise after your shower and you're good to go!
Let me know if you try this!
