Make a Skin Brightening Scrub with Citrus Peels

Gather Citrus Peels

Collect citrus peels from lemons, oranges, limes, or grapefruits. Ensure they are cleaned thoroughly.

Dry the Citrus Peels

Spread the peels on a clean tray and leave them to dry in a well-ventilated area for about 2-3 days. Alternatively, you can use an oven set at its lowest temperature to speed up the drying process.

Grind the Dried Peels

Once the peels are completely dried, use a food processor or grinder to grind them into a fine powder.

Mix the Ingredients

In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of citrus peel powder, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup of coconut oil. Mix thoroughly.

Store the Scrub

Transfer the mixture into an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place.

Use the Scrub

Apply the scrub to damp skin, massaging in circular motions for a few minutes before rinsing off with warm water.
