Help! My Natural Scrub Is Too Rough!

Arianne Suggs June 5, 2015June 5, 2015Leave a Comment

Natural body scrubs are a great way to get smooth, glowing skin right in time for summer. However, various salts or sugars are coarser in texture than others and can feel a bit too rough. Depending on your skin using very coarse materials or elements may not be necessary in order to slough off a particular area’s dry or dead skin.

For instance, raw sugar is coarser than brown sugar and tends to need more oil added to the scrub to prevent a shredding feel. Body scrubs should never feel as though they are doing more damage than good. Moreover, if your homemade scrub is feeling a tad bit rough on your skin you can also consider mixing in honey to add moisture.

Forget the whole beauty notion that summer makeup can’t include darker shades of color or can’t showcase some extra drama. Yes, the lighter beauty colors normally made available during the spring and summer seasons can be fun to play with, however, that does not mean you must leave out darker shades from your makeup looks. Dark lips are definitely in and even during spring/summer runway shows dramatic cat-eye makeup was all the rage. Modernize the look by allowing your upper eyelid line to float instead of traditionally just framing or following the lash line. During the Atelier Versace runway show model’s cat-eye makeup included liner being drawn along the crease.

Beauty Answer: With a good regimen changes and results should be noticeable within 2-3 months. Just like with regular hair (or hair which grows from the scalp) everyone is different and for some the process can be quicker or slower.
