Three easy things I do for halfway decent skin

[mollyringle]

1) Mix some brown sugar with my usual face-washing substance and rub it on for some exfoliation. My mother, who has lovely skin, has a nightly ritual of scrubbing her face with a mixture of sugar and oil. I think she uses just canola oil or some other cooking type. I don't know about your face, but mine would break out for a week if I used canola

i think i've heard of sugar as face scrub before. but that was the regular kind, which is probably really rough.

Yeah, I think my mom uses white sugar, but I saw brown listed in a DIY scrub and went with that. It does have finer grains and softer texture, and apparently the molasses adds a touch of vitamins. :)
