Scrubs are probably one of the most fun ways to take care of your beauty and hygiene. It?s so much fun to know what awesome things are going into the scrub and knowing how it will help your skin. They can also be colorful, and the smooth soft skin you have afterward just feels nice!
However, there are so many choices out there, and whenever I go on Pinterest or Google a good scrub idea, I find it hard to make a decision. So I thought I?d curate a list of five scrubs that you can try out and see which one you like best. Because small lists of awesome things are pretty cool.
DIY Blueberry Lemon Body Scrub
When this one caught my eye, I thought two things. One: that color is pretty awesome. Two: blueberries have antioxidants in them.. that sounds great to my skin!
Created by Dear Crissy, this scrub includes coconut oil which has great moisturizing, cleansing, and anti-aging benefits for skin (you can buy coconut oil
online, since that will save you from having to make a store run).

She also adds lemon extract which is great, especially if you have any scar tissue, as lemon is a natural bleacher and can lighten and even out your skin tone.

DIY Chocolate Mint Sugar Scrub
I put cocoa powder in a lot of things; oatmeal, cake in a mug, coffee drinks, but I?ve never put it into a skincare product before. Which is why I was immediately drawn to this one.
It seems that coconut oil is one of the main ingredients in a lot of scrubs out there. And it makes sense, unlike other oils, it?s able to firm up in room temperature and make for a nice scrub texture (and it has tons of benefits as well I suppose).
Created by Jody Arsenault, this scrub includes cocoa powder (which helps to tighten skin, fight aging, and prevent breakouts), almond oil (which helps in the moisturizing and lightening skin, and contains Vitamin E which helps with anti-aging and healing), and peppermint (which helps calm and soothe your skin).

DIY: Coconut Coffee Scrub
If you already have coconut oil, then that?s good, because you already have the main ingredient down for these first three scrubs. It seems like coconut oil is the key ingredient for a lot of scrubs out there (and I can?t blame the people who make them, the oil has some pretty awesome benefits).
Created by Bev Weidner, the coffee has awesome antioxidants in it (you know, the stuff that helps to prevent aging), as well as skin firming properties which help to give you a more youthful look (or keep it longer). So if you?re already into coffee (or a bit of an addict), then all you have to do is go to your kitchen, get some coffee, and start on that scrub!
