Milk and Sugar Oatmeal Body Scrub

Note: When scrubbing, use firm vertical strokes or a circular motion starting with your neck and working down.

¼ cup powdered milk
¼ cup oatmeal
¼ cup sugar
1 vitamin E capsule (note: if you are pimple-prone, leave this out)

Mix all ingredients together and prick the vitamin E capsule and squeeze contents into the mixture. Add enough warm water to make a paste. Get into the shower and scrub your entire body with the mixture. Rinse off.

Why it works: The powdered milk contains natural lactic acids to exfoliate your skin (think Cleopatra) as well a the glycolic acids found in sugar. The oatmeal contains natural colloids that soothe the skin and also heps in the exfoliation. Vitamin E helps the body tissues to grow and remain healthy.

*You can also double or triple the amount of any facial scrub and use it as a body scrub.
