Why It Works
Tomatoes are a natural source of antioxidants and vitamin C, which help to brighten and nourish your skin. The sugar in this scrub acts as a gentle exfoliant, sloughing off dead skin cells and revealing the fresh, healthy skin beneath.
And the olive oil helps to moisturize and soften your skin, leaving it feeling smooth and supple.
Tips for Using Your Tomato Summer Scrub
Here are a few tips to help you get the most out of your homemade scrub:.
- Use this scrub once or twice a week for best results.
- If you have sensitive skin, do a patch test before using the scrub all over your face or body.
- You can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
So there you have it–a simple, natural recipe for glowing skin that you can make at home in just a few minutes. Give it a try and see how it works for you!.
