I'd like to try to make a homemade facial scrub. Does anyone have any recipes that only consist of 2 ingredients? I don't want to buy a bunch of weird, voodoo sounding stuff.

The usual thing would be good fine salt and some oil. Olive oil is the most common, so you don't have to buy anything new for it. But Jojoba, Sesame whatever feels right to you is good too.
Salt sounds aggressive, but my skin is really sensitive and it doesn't react badly...I get a bit more colour, but it looks more like after doing sports which isn't a bad thing really :)

Add some sugar to your cleanser and scrub your face with it. Or to scrub and moisturize you skin, moisten sugar with some olive oil and scrub away! I also love blending up some pineapple (or juicing the pineapple to drink and then using the leftover pulp) and putting it on my face like a mask. The enzymes eat up your dead skin and make you all fresh and glowy. It might not be great for sensitive skin though - spot test to see if your skin can tolerate the acid in the pineapple first :)

I use honey and sugar. I scrub my skin, than leave the mixture on while I shower (honey is good for the skin) and rinse it off before getting out of the shower. It works great for me!
Fresh aloe vera is the bomb for reviving up your skin, I feel like it exfoliates and tightens without having to add a harsh scrubbing agent. If your looking for a scrub though, just use a sea sponge loofa-works like a charm:)
I just watched this again. Quentin Tarantino still wants his hat back. Also, how do you know that we can't survive in the vacuum of space? You realize that's a *gasp* scientific theory?
Thanks for attending The Show for us, YogaB. I used to go to a lot of these sorts of things when I lived in sunny So Cal. Glad I moved, glad I got poor, glad I lost my ability to follow. I remember getting so damn excited at every lecture, ready t...
