4 DIY Scrubs To Try At Home

featured18.jpg

We all love a little exfoliation, but stocking our beauty stashes with the best scrubs on the market can get expensive! Although we can almost always find an excuse to splurge on a new scrub, there comes a time when we have to say enough is enough! Exfoliation is a must, but it shouldn’t bust your wallet. So, since we have yet to get tired of the feeling that comes with running our hands over our recently exfoliated legs, we have opted for the alternative: DIY scrubs! The phrase ‘Do-It-Yourself’ might scare you, but it’s definitely worth a shot!  These scrubs are incredibly easy to make (unlike some Pinterest creations) and can be concocted with ingredients you find at your local supermarket.  In fact, creating your own exfoliates means that you can 1) know what it consists of, 2) alter it to your likings, and 3) make a batch that is twice the size of your usual scrub but half the price!
