Hello beauties!:)
Hope you are enjoying your summers! Today, I will be sharing another body scrub recipe, which is super super easy to make but works wonders. I always prefer using natural body scrubs over store brought body scrubs, as these are natural, have no nasty chemicals and free of polyethylene which is now found in major body scrubs. I will surely recommend you to check your scrub’s ingredients and look for polyethylene. Toss it away if it has that ingredient please! Now let’s see how to make this body scrub.
You will need:
½ cup organic brown sugar
3 tbsp green tea leaves
3-4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Step 1– In a large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients. You can use green tea leaves from sachets which is easily available these days.
Step 2- Add the olive oil to the mixture. Mix it throughly, and you are done!
Step 3 (optional) – Just to make the body scrub look better, I added a few petals of rose, you can totally skip this step.
It’s just as simple is this! I stored this in a small airtight jar. It has a shelf life of 1-2 months. It’s easy to use, looks good and totally organic and natural! You can use this twice a week and you will get glowing smooth skin!
Benefits of the ingredients used:
Brown sugar:
- Keeps your skin moisturized
- Makes the skin smooth and healthy
- Brown sugar contains glycolic acid, that fights bacteria.
- Better exfoliator than white sugar or salt.
Green tea:
- Has tons of antioxidants
- Keeps skin fresh and flawless
- Treats acne and hydrates
Olive oil:
- Moisturizes skin
- Makes the skin glowing
- Has ample of antioxidants
Natural products keep your healthy and glowing in the long run. They are good for you and also for the environment. Make sure you try this out and enjoy the goodness of the ingredients!
Hope you have a lovely day!xoxo

Hi Vanya,
Wonderful DIY..Mine is very sensitive skin..I am going to try this..Can we use white sugar instead of brown?
Yes you can use white sugar for sure, but it has bigger crystals than brown sugar does, so I would suggest you to grind white sugar for 1-2 seconds 🙂 and thanks!
For sure, but use granulated sugar or grind normal white sugar in a blender for 1 second! This will make sure that the sugar is not too harsh. Hope this helps 🙂
