In general, sugar scrubs are beneficial for your face as they remove dead skin, restore clogged pores, are a natural humectant, and are excellent exfoliators.

The one we are talking about is a bit special. You will need a quarter cup of superfine sugar, two tablespoons of honey, and two tablespoons of almond oil.

Mix all the ingredients in a small jar and blend them properly. However, make sure that you do not dissolve all of the sugar.

3. Apricot

So sweet, so delicious, however, rarely do people know that apricot offers terrific skin benefits.

Having apricots in your diet can help you combat skin damage and wrinkles that are caused by environmental factors such as intensive heat, smoke, and air pollution.

Apricots offer a full dose of antioxidants, plus the fruit also contains vitamins C and E that also aid your skin. Vitamin C helps you protect against UV damage and neutralizing free moving radicals.
