Sesame Seeds
Very nutty in taste and excellent for the skin. When you need that delicate skin texture and are looking for a good exfoliation then sesame is the product to go for. To two tablespoons of ground sesame seeds add half a teaspoon of turmeric add oil of your choice to the mixture. Mix well to get a paste like consistency.
Poppy Seeds
Be it the white poppy or the black one these small granular seeds are one of the best natural seeds used for body scrubs. Their small size makes them the perfect size to be added to the scrub and when used they give excellent exfoliation leaving behind a soft and smooth skin. Mix poppy seeds with sugar or salt, add enough oil to make a paste and apply.
Flaxseed
These small brown seeds are gaining popularity day by day. Their nutritional value is being hailed as one of the best ones for overall health. In the area of body scrubs also they are doing wonders. While they caress the skin on one hand they get rid of dead skin on the other. Mix ground flaxseeds with honey and add milk or water to make a paste.
Coffee Beans
The use of this natural product in body scrubs is becoming very popular. It is also believed that body scrubs containing coffee are a sure way to beat cellulite. Mix coffee granules with sugar and add coconut oil to make a thick paste. While the sugar and coffee do the scrubbing the coconut oil will moisturise the skin.
Sunflower Seeds
Sunflower seeds lend a gritty texture to a scrub making exfoliation very effective. To get a scrub which exfoliates, cleanses and moisturises mix ground sunflower seeds, oatmeal, honey and milk. Make sure to mix very well before application.
