Emergency Face Scrub
This face scrub is what I've been using for a few months now. I never have face scrub on hand - lots of the nice ones I used before included the shells of nuts. With a nut allergy in the house I figured I should pass on those. ;)
Corn meal is a really nice exfoliant - much nicer than putting sugar or salt on your face. :D It's comparable to the apricot scrub that's so popular.

What You'll Need
- your favorite face soap (can be creamy or more of a gel)
- about two pinches of corn meal
- about two pinches of corn meal
Combine and Scrub!
Put the soap in the palm of your hand and add enough corn meal so that the mix is gritty but still fluid. :)
Mix with your fingers and use immediately!
It's not something you can prepare beforehand because the corn meal soaks up moisture so well. But it is a really excellent fix for dry skin. :D
