Homemade Skin Scrub with Semolina powder and Yogurt

Hello world, today I woke up with a mood of doing something good to my body. Yoga I basically do on the mornings  ( even though I am not so professional on it), then I was thinking what can I do more for myself. And I found the answer... this day I will dedicate to my beauty and skin care.
 Let it be a day free of make up, free of cosmetics, just natural. And I will make very simple natural face scrub, which will try on my  face. I am sure everyone of you can make this scrub at your home, since it contains  only two ingredients, which are always there in your kitchen. So let's start the process.

Ingredients:

1. 1 tablespoon semolina powder (Sooji/ Rawa)
2. 1 tablespoon yogurt or sour cream 

To find a sour cream in India is a hard task, so I have used part of yogurt, which has a thick consistency. Its basically good if yogurt has been kept in refrigerator, because it will be more creamy and also will refresh your skin.

Process:

We need to mix two ingredients, make a mixture and apply on the face ( skin should be clean from make up and washed ).

After applying gently massage your skin according to face lines. Then leave it  for 15 minutes and  wash with little bit warm water (now in India it's always warm).
Here it is how my skin looks, after this scrub. Since it was more than enough for my face, I have applied also on my hands.

So what effect can give this scrub?
Yogurt contains lactic acid and alpha hydroxy acid which dissolves dead skin cells.
Simple yogurt   applied two times a week will leave you with soft and supple skin. The zinc in yogurt helps to cool sunburns. Yogurt contains natural antibacterial and anti-fungal proportions. If to use it regularly yogurt has a mild bleaching powers that can smooth out discoloration.  The lactic acid in yogurt will help dissolve dead skin and tighten pores.
Semolina (Sooji/ Rawa) powder opens skin pores, remove dirts and eliminates  dead skin cells, blackheads and make the skin more clear and fair.
So, as we see this scrub is very healthful for skin, so I highly recommend of using it, since it does not take a much time, but has a great effect.



Stay beautiful
