Winter Skin Care

Moving from extreme temperatures – inside, outside, dry heat, brisk wind, my skin takes a beating and gets chapped easily. Getting enough healthy fats into my diet can help from within. For topical help, I love to make sugar scrubs to gently slough off the dry skin and seal in natural moisture.

Sugar body scrub recipe
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup carrier oil -sesame, olive or avocado are great this time of year)
Add in a few drops of your favorite essential oils – lavender is always a good one.
My favorite indulgent scents this time of year are a blend of the following:  sandalwood (alignment), rose (love), myrrh (restoration of self) & cassia (warming). Divine and a quite a treat!

As always, be mindful if you have sensitive skin.
