Scrubbing with apricot
- To make the apricot kernel powder, Cut the apricots around their pits horizontally and twist the halves to separate them, and remove the seeds. Now take these seeds and roast them in the sunlight for 2-3 days. Once they become dry, break the outer shell using a nutshell breaker to get kernels.
- Now grind the kernels to a fine powder using a grinder. If you find the gritters too harsh grind them again as per your convenience.
- To make apricot puree, peel off the outer skin of the fruit and then puree it in a blender. Or you can use a cheese grater and make a paste of it. Do not make it too runny.
- Now take 2 tablespoon of apricot puree along with 1 of apricot kernel powder in a clean bowl.
- Now add ½ tablespoon of honey in it and mix well and voila your homemade apricot scrub is ready.
Quick Tips:
- If you do not have apricot kernel powder, you may exchange it with almond powder or simple oatmeal.
- You can add apricot kernel oil for extra benefits.
- This scrub can stay fresh for 2 days only, so keep it in fridge.
- So in order to save time, make the apricot kernel powder and keep it in fridge in a dry container and use it as per your convenience.
