Mini Face Peel




Fast, CHEAP, Easy
Mini Face Peel

Here is my cheap beauty trick of the week!!! It's a sweet one ha ha ha!!!

When life hands you lemons - grab some sugar and make some facial scrub!!!

ha ha ha by "lemons" i mean
*sun spots
*age spots
*acne
*freckles
*dull skin
*discoloration
*pregnancy mask (ha ha mine looked like a moustache when i was preggo with my daughter)

Lemons contain aha's (alpha hydroxy acids) & bha's (beta hydroxy acids)
Sugar contains skin softening agents and major buffing power

aha's & bha's work to slough off the top layer of yucky dead skin cells and the acid from the lemons kill nasty bacteria

what you'll need
(you probably already have it)
*lemon - either fresh or the juice from one of those lemon thingys in the produce isle
*granulated sugar
*cotton pad or cotton balls

First ~ Wet your clean face with warm water (warm water opens your pores getting your face ready for optimum scrubbyness)

2nd ~ squeeze some lemon juice onto your handy lil cotton pad till its soaked

3rd ~ sprinkle about a tsp of sugar on top of pad (everythings better with sugar on top!!!)

4th ~ scrub and buff away all over your pretty lil face concentrating on any trouble spots and your t-zone (forehead, nose & chin)

5th ~ rinse off with warm water and pat skin dry with clean towel

I promise you will be AMAZED with the super softyness of your skin!!! It feels SOOOO good!!!!

You can use this lemoney sweet scrub anytime your heart desires (like once a day ha ha)

If you have very sensitive skin dilute the lemon juice with a splash of water and only scrub everyother day

Don't get it in your eyes - it stings =(   If it gets in your mouth well that's ok ha ha ha it tastes like lemonaid mmm and its alllll natural!! (in-fact it works great to slough off dead peeling skin of chapped lips)

Enjoy your BEAUTIFUL, GLOWING, SOFT skin!!!

much love and more to come,
