Cheap Summer Beauty!

Okay so in honor of the warm weather and the fact that we all love to wear shorts and swimsuits when it gets warmer I am posting some cheap at home beauty treatments I found to take care of our hair and skin so that we can all look great! :)

1/2 cup pomegranate seeds

1/2 cup white sugar

2 tsp oil

1-2 drops of your favorite essential oil (opt)

In a small bowl combine sugar and pomegranate seeds and crush both with a spoon. Add oil and mix. The pomegranate will naturally scent the scrub but if you want additional scent add a couple drops of essential oil. Massage gently onto damp skin. There should be enough for a full body scrub.
