Friday's Tip of the Week


#2 You went to the store and bought strawberries. And didn’t manage to finish all of them, so half the carton is about to go bad. Instead of wasting nearly overripe strawberries, use them to exfoliate your hands and feet! We don’t recommend using the strawberries on your face because the seeds could possibly cause micro cuts on your face, resulting in a possible breakout or sensitivity. However, used on the stronger, more durable skin on hands and feet, your skin will be fine.

Ingredients

  • 6 strawberries
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp salt (either Kosher or Sea Salt)

  1. Mash up the strawberries. You can use the back of a large spoon or a potato masher. Do not use a blender because it will leave your scrub a little watery
  2. Add the olive oil and salt.
  3. Mix together.
  4. Massage into hands and feet.
  5. Rinse with water.
