Facials can play a vital role in helping keep skin healthy and glowing. Body scrubs are a spa experience you can create at home. Making your own body scrub is very easy to do. You should only make enough for one use or at most four uses. Clay face mask draws up the natural skin care component in clay to cleanse and purify the skin. It is actually a drying mask that draws out impurities from under the surface of the skin. The goal of this type of mask is to tighten, revitalize and activate skin circulation, giving the skin a youthful and vibrant glow.You can make your own body scrub from the ingredients you probably already have on hand.

Exfoliate ingredients include sea salt, epsom salt, white sugar, brown sugar, cornmeal and oatmeal. The wet ingredient is either an oil or vegetable butter or liquid soap. A cream face mask is a moisturizing mask that revitalizes and hydrates the skin. It may contain organic skin care exfoliation agents to help cleanse skin pores, remove waste and toxins and fight free radicals leaving the skin more velvety and luminous. Organic facial masks may contain generous amounts of botanical freshener like rose floral water and calming sea algae to double act as toner. Scrubs work by removing deeply ingrained dirt and grime to leave skin soft and clear. The good ones are made up with the grinded core of the peach fruit or almonds. The natural granules remove dead skin cell and blackheads.

Scrubs are a great, inexpensive and effective way of thoroughly cleansing your entire body while providing it with an overall skin care treatment. Some body scrubs use small beads, which work to gently remove dead skin without causing harm or irritation. If your skin is oily this is the ideal homemade scrub. Take 4 table­spoons of chickpea powder. Add to this, half tablespoons of turmeric power, a few drops of rose water and milk to make a thick paste. Rub it all over the body. Apply baking soda on wet face using circular motions. Make a mixture of 1 tsp walnut powder,1/2 tsp honey, 1 tsp lemon juice and scrub your face with it. Other scrubs mash a piece of papaya, then add 1/2 tsp brown sugar and rub your face with it. Leave it on for 20 minutes and rinse well.
