Pink Lemonade Body Scrub

I am not a huge fan of winter. It is very pretty when you are able to bunker in at home, cuddling under warm blankets, cup of coffee in hand and watching Netflix all afternoon. Seems so magical. But after Christmas is over, I just wish the snow and cold would just disappear. Bring on sun, bikinis and patios.

Arghhh, the reality is winter does not leave for many months following and this year seems to be longer than ever. Besides the cold weather, another reality of winter is...DRY SKIN!!

It seems no matter how much water you drink or how much lotion you apply, your skin is always dry and flakey during the winter months. You can end up spending hundreds of $$ on lotions and scrubs to combat the dry, itchy feeling. I was tired of spending money on products from the store, so I finally made my own and the results have been AH-MAZING!!

Homemade sugar body scrubs are the most inexpensive and effective way to combat the dry skin associated with winter. This body scrub not only smells amazing but it is also FREE of any toxic chemicals. 4 simple ingredients and about 5 mins is all that is needed to make up this body scrub. Keep it handy in the shower or by the sink when washing your hands. Gently exfoliate and moisturize the skin the same time.

This Pink Lemonade Body Scrub will not only have your skin feeling smooth and moisturized, but it will have you thinking about spring, sipping pink lemonade on the patio and forget all about winter!
