DIY Green Tea / Honey scrub !

Okay so this is my first DIY (Do it yourself) & I would love to do more if you guys want me to! Alright so today's DIY is a scrub, and this is one of my all time favorites. Green tea... I hope you all know how amazing it is for your health, well guess what, it's as amazing for your skin. & honey? You should be eating at least 1 tablespoon everyday, but I know I don't like to so I wont make you either. But I found a way for it to do wonders for my skin without me having to eating it! (even thought it doesn't taste bad at all and you SHOULD eat it!).

 I do prefer this over my purchased scrubs so you can imagine how much I love this! I usually do this once a month to give my skin a break from all the harsh chemicals that go on our skin everyday. If you can put your pants on by yourself, you can do this aswell haha! So let's get started!

Ingredients !

• Boiling water
• Green tea (leaves or tea bags both work well)
• White sugar
• Honey
• lemon (optional)

And thats all.. yeah really thats all you need!

Preparing the mixture!


1. Boil about half a cup of water for the green tea.

2. As you're waiting for the water to boil, put your tea bag in the cup or if you're using tea leaves, put about a tablespoon of those into the cup.

3. Then take your boiling water, add it into the cup, making sure it's only about 1/3 of the cup. 

4. Mix the tea bag/leaves with the water and put the cup aside, until the tea is luke warm.

5. Add 3 tablespoons of sugar into a bowl.

6. Take your tea, it should be warm at this point so it doesn't melt the sugar, add about 2 tablespoons of the tea into the bowl. The tea should just absorb the sugar, if the consistency is still too think, add half a tablespoon more of the tea into the bowl.

7. Mix the ingredients together and it should look something like this so far. 

8. Now, add one more tablespoon of sugar into the bowl and mix that well together.

9. Okay, almost done! Take one table spoon of honey and mix it well with all the other ingredients!

10. Now this step is optional, but you can squeeze some lemon into the mixture. Lemon helps cleanse your skin!

And this is how the final thing should look! 

How To Apply!

Now that we have the scrub ready, make sure you keep the green tea that was left in the cup!

Take a cotton pad, get some of the mixture on it and gently massage your face, going in circular motions.

After doing that for about a minute, take the scrub into your hands and massage it gently on your face for 2 more minutes. Next, just rinse your face with luke warm water and before drying your face take the green tea that was left, dip a cotton pad in it and rub that all over your face. The green tea works as a toner for your skin! Plus its not sticky so you can pat dry your face & voila! 

I REALLY hope you guys try this out, it works wonders! Let me know if you guys try it out, I would love to hear what you guys think!
