DIY Beauty Post

Hey There,

Recently I was challenged by *Mira Showers, who have collaborated with The Midas Touch Crafts on the beauty campaign #Miramessmakers to get creative and make myself a DIY beauty product. Using nothing but ingredients I would find in the kitchen, and the water in my taps.

I love the idea of making skincare products from scratch, I don’t know why I have never done it before! Having decided I need to up my bodycare game, plus the fact I am a little fussy with what I slap on my face, it was quickly decided that my DIY beauty product would be a body scrub. Getting in to the festive spirit along with my love of ginger bread men and ginger biscuits, I had to go for a ginger scrub. And wow it smells amazing!

What’s in it?

Brown sugar, and soft brown sugar
Ginger (1 teaspoon)
Nutmeg (1/2 teaspoon)
Cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
Coconut oil (1 heaped tablespoon)
*Rough measurements

I decided to go for two different types of sugar, so that when creating the scrub I could change the level of exfoliation, the soft sugar is more gentle on the skin, but I like a hard scrub too, to really get rid of that dry skin. Not only does it smell so good you want to eat it, (And literally could) but it feels great on the skin, leaves it soft, and you know exactly what is in it.

What DIY beauty product would you make?

Lots of love,

P.S It would make a great gift for someone at Christmas.
