DIY Coconut and sugar body scrub!!

Hey guys !! Lately I've been messing around with some ingredients that I have in my house!! I've fingered out how to make a few scrubs out of this simple things that you have lying around the house or you can buy cheap!!

What you need!!:))
  • Coconut oil
  • Sugar
  • Microwave (optional)
  • Container (little plastic box or a jar)
  • Bowl
Let's get started!!!
  1. Melt a few teaspoons of coconut oil in the microwave in your bowl , or if you don't have a microwave leave it in the sun for a while to melt or leave it beside a heater.  ( it melts quickly) 
  2. I can't tell you exact measurements because I don't know the size of your container!(sorry) but next you take your sugar and take as clean spoon and mix a few teaspoons of it into your bowl with the coconut oil.
  3. Mix until you are happy with the consistency ! Mine was more liquidy because I put more coconut oil.
  4. Place in the fridge or just leave it in your bathroom, it wtill solidify.
When it solidifies it should look something like this:)))


 

That's what mine looked like !! **hint** make sure you mix it all properly because you can see the that I have clumps of sugar left on the side !! 

I hope you enjoy making this it's natural and cheap and really helpful for exfoliating the skin!:))

#5 Makeup Mistakes We Make That Make Us Look Tired!!
Don't you hate it when you someone tells you that you look tired!! We'll these are some tips to avoid someone telling you this!!
Mistake #1: You don't start with a moisturiser.
Having dry skin won't do you any favors in the looking awake department.
Hint***Pick a moisturizer with added SPF. It not only adds much-needed hydration back into your skin, but it also protect you from sun damage, which — surprise! — also ages you.
Mistake #2: You apply foundation all wrong.
Wearing way too much, wearing none at all, or wearing a color that doesn't match your skintone are all big no-no's. Why? Skipping it completely while still adding other makeup (like mascara) can make your skin look washed out. And caked-up foundation (even in powder form) can crack and make wrinkles and imperfections appear so much worse.

Hint***  Find a colour that works for you and apply it evenly. If you're struggling to find your match, add a swipe along your jawline or hand — either will help you find a shade that blends into your skin.
Mistake #3: You forget about blush.
Lack of color equals dull and lifeless skin.
hint*** If you're going to wear any makeup at all, stick with a moisturiser, light coverage foundation, a bit of mascara, and a swipe of blush. Start on the apples of your cheeks and apply toward your hairline. You'll look awake and refreshed in no time.
Mistake #4: You overdo the eyeliner.

If you wear too much, you eyes can appear smaller and more tired. Plus, deep black liners can exaggerate bloodshot eyes if you are actually lacking sleep.
Hint*** Consider lining your lower lid with a lighter-coloured pencil (pick one that is a shade darker than your skintone) to open up your eyes. Even a swipe of white can make you look more refreshed.
Mistake #5: You don't freshen up throughout the day.

Smudged eyeliner or uneven lipstick? An unkempt face screams that you need some sleep !!
Hint*** Take a quick bathroom break (30 seconds is all you need) to remove any black smudges underneath your eyes, dab a bit of concealer on any trouble 
spots, and brush out your brows. It's the perfect beauty pick-me-up.


Thanks for reading!! I hope you enjoyed my tips!!:}}
