Skin Care : Natural Homemade Moisturizing Floral Vanilla Sugar Body Polish

Great to write another article that is something close to my heart! Yeah I am talking about body polish. I think u have you have already heard this name. I love anything that makes me feel awesome, body scrub, or for that matter any scrub is one of them! I do not like store-bought scrubs for some unknown reason, so I have always made them at home!

Homemade Moisturizing Floral Vanilla Sugar Body Polish


This Scrub is so moisturizing, Looks so good and its so easy, requires only a handful of ingredients that you probably have on hand.

Ingredients For Vanilla Sugar Body Polish :


  1.    Rose petals or rose powder.

  2.    Vanilla (essential oil, paste or vanilla beans).

  3.    Oil (any oil would do, I have used coconut oil).

  4.    Lavender essential oil.

Optional ingredients For Vanilla Sugar Body Polish:


  1.    Rose Water or extract.

  2.    Pink non-toxic food colorizing.

Method :

In a mixer, add the sugar, rose petals or powder, two to three drops of lavender essential oil and your selected oil and run it for about 30 seconds or till the rose petals have been crushed up. The mixture should be pinkish in colour. Add in the vanilla and mix it well with a spoon. Now store this in a container. I suggest to add honey and rose water (optional) whenever you want to apply the body polish.Gently massage your body with the scrub for about 5 minutes and wait for an additional 5 minutes so that the ingredients get time to work their magic and then wash off with lukewarm water. Do not forget to moisturize your skin afterwards!

Note:


I haven’t used the optional ingredients just because I loved the way it turned out, but by all means, you could use them if you want to

This body polish can be used on face and lips too! Just avoid the hairline, eye and eyebrow area.

If you are using food color to add color to your scrub, then add a drop of it before you start the mixer. If you are using fresh rose petals, then I suggest that you make small batches and use it within a week. If you are using rose powder, then it should last longer. I have always used the fresh petals for my body polish and used it within a week. Be careful while handling lavender essential oil and only add it in to the mixture using a dropper. Use this body polish twice a week for soft and supple skin. Enjoy spa-like treatment at home.
