Olive Oil Scrub

This three-ingredient facial scrub is a sweet and natural way to wash away a hard day in the kitchen. 

You will need:
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons honey (I use organic)
1/2 cup granulated sugar

Combine the ingredients in a jar or bowl and stir.

Gently massage the scrub into your skin in a circular motion and then rinse with warm water and pat dry with a soft towel.
