Okay so I am sitting here thinking I need to wash my face and get ready for bed and I thought, " hmm I should try one of those DIY skin care posts I have up." Now when it comes to the DIY skin cares I might be a little picky seeing as skin is my thing, being licensed master aesthetician who works at a medspa and all =). SO here is the post that is circulating around the pinterest site.
First, if you do not know what a microdermabrasion is click
here.You can see at the top is has the instructions. If we are being honest I do not exactly know how much 3 parts and 1 parts is. Does that mean 3 cups to 1 cup?? So I just guessed, and mixed it up until it was a good paste.
Now in a spa when you get a micro you cleanse your face first so I just used
my favorite cleanser that I have ( side note: Sanitas is one of the best skin care brands and have used and get great results on myself and clients from it).
After I made it I pasted it all over my face like so.. by the way my husband was laughing when he walked in the kitchen and saw me doing all of this, I think he thinks me crazy =)
So I really was not expecting much from this..however my skin actually feels really soft right now and has this very gentle tingle that feels nice. It was a little hard to get off but thats okay. My skin has a nice glow to it...
SO I think I am going to give this popular pin an A, but re-title it "Great at home facial scrub". This is something you could do once or twice a week for the soul purpose of just buffing off any dead skin. I do not think the baking soda will really do a lot in helping with serious acne or anti aging but for a basic skin scrub it gives your skin a nice smooth finish and glow, its a great DIY. . Just make sure to moisturize when you are done! OH and one more thing.. maybe do not make as much as me unless you have a big group of girls... I definitely made to much. I wonder if I can save it though. Hmm...
