Sweet Summer Skin Smoother

Written by Mindy Terry: President and Founder of Creative Spa Concepts

Ingredients:

  • 1 Ripe, Organic Mango
  • 1 tbsp. Honey
  • 1/2 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 cup Sugar in the Raw

Directions:

Mash up 1/2 mango with a fork until smooth. Stir in honey and olive oil until blended. Add sugar.

While in the shower, massage mixture onto dry skin including the neck and face. Allow the mask to remain on the body for several minutes to smooth and soften the skin. Rinse off with warm water and lightly dry the skin.

For added moisture, follow with your favorite body and face moisturizers.

Why it's Good For Your Skin:

Mango is rich in phytochemicals and nutrients that nourish the skin. It is also a great anti-oxidant.
