Home Body Care: How to do it?
The choice of vegetable oils depends on our needs.
If you have dry or sensitive skin, shea oil is ideal. For normal skin, opt for sweet almond oil.
Finally, if you wish, you can opt for organic ingredients, available in shops and specialist shops.

Exfoliation is an essential care to pamper your skin. It allows deep cleaning and softening.
Carrying out care at home is a natural, easy and economical approach.
On the ingredients, we need coarse sugar cane sugar and coarse salt (for exfoliating action), sweet almond oil for its moisturizing properties and liquid honey for its softening and purifying side. Simply mix all the products to get an effective scrub. Without preservative, this kind of home care should be kept in the refrigerator and used within a week.
The advantage of DIY beauty is that one can have fun using regularly different products. We take a walk in his kitchen and we test care with salt, sugar, lemon, cocoa, olive oil and so on.
We can also make a scrub with coffee grounds with beneficial properties for the skin. Caffeine has an anti-aging, toning and draining action. It is an excellent ally against cellulite.
