DIY 3 easy ingredients Banana sugar scrub

This is a simple at home Treatment you can give yourself! With only 3 simple ingredients you can find in your kitchen.

 1 ripe banana
 3 table spoons of granulated sugar
 1/4 tsp Pure vanilla extract(your choice brand)


Mash Ingredients together until it is a chunky paste. Do not over mix so it becomes watery.. Jump in the bath and apply to your body, rub in  especially to those dry areas. Rise off! I then like to finish my newly fresh skin with lotion to moisturize... I make a wonderful Banana Cream Lotion you can find HERE and other wonderful Islandy scents.
Set aside some banana without the sugar and Extract if you want to apply some onto your face. 

Bananas are also loaded with soothing properties that help in reducing inflammation.  Its been said The use of banana for the purpose of skin care began  with The ancient Egyptians.. The skin of banana is also essential for getting rid of certain skin conditions such as insect bites, redness etc. Instead of applying or before applying any other medicine, just attach the skin of the banana on the area infected and wrap. This will be helpful in reducing the blemishes, swellings and the irritation.
Applying the pulp of banana on the face, after mashing, helps in making the skin supple and soft. It is being used in a number of homemade beauty treatments. You can even use the pulp of the banana along with the regular face pack that you use. The peel of banana contains antioxidants and potassium, so simply rubbing it on your skin can be very helpful. It is known to be helpful in clearing acne as well. Applying banana on the face enhances the glow on your face. You can even mix the pulp of banana with honey in order to give a moisturizing effect on your skin.

Well Enjoy Your Scrubs! Happy skin!
