Pomegranate Body Scrub

Pomegranate is rich in vitamin B5, C and Potassium, polyphenols etc. that enhance the beauty and life of skin .It is a good source of ellagic acid and anti-oxidants which are helpful in destroying free radicals.
With 5 times the anti-oxidants found in  green tea, Pomegranates are among the super heroes of anti-aging. This aromatic Pomegranate body scrub gently removes dead skin cells while giving the body a burst of nourishment.



You will Need:

- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup organic olive oil
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon or orange peel
- 1 whole Pomegranate with skin and all

Method:

Cut the Pomegranate into quarters, skin and all. Skin has lot more anti-oxidants than the seeds or juice has and so you need to use the whole fruit. Use a blender to blend all ingredients except sugar. Blend until the mixture is a little coarse. You can add more olive oil as you blend. Pour the mixture into a bowl and mix in the sugar.
Gently Rub the scrub in a circular motion onto your body and face to exfoliate.
