APRICOT AND PAPAYA FACE SCRUB
\nBeauty ingredients<\/p>\n
1 tsp apricot kernel powder (finely grated)
\n3 tbs apricot pulp
\n3 tbs ripe papaya pulp (peak season is beginning of summer; end of spring if you’re lucky!)<\/p>\n
Mix all ingredients together and apply to your face and neck for 20 minutes. Gently scrub while rinsing off. Leon Rao, natural skin care advisor and author of Leon’s Anti-aging Beauty Secrets, advises, “If you don’t have apricot kernel powder at home, you can substitute it with oatmeal powder or almond powder.”
\nSkin care benefit<\/p>\n
Apricots are high in beta-carotene and known for reducing problematic skin issues. A mixture of sub-acids and sugar, apricots are great for gentle exfoliation and nourishment, leaving your skin soft and brighter.
