Why make skin scrubs in Thermomix?
Thermomix is usually associated with cooking. However, we can also use it for other purposes. Among other things, we can prepare skin scrubs! I have made and gifted these to my friends, and used them myself in my skincare routine.
Of course, you can make skin scrubs without a Thermomix. However, making a scrub "from scratch" takes quite a long time. Not every machine can grind coffee beans or nutshells well. The coffee grinder was doing quite well but was not strong enough to grind the nut shells. The Thermomix can grind both coffee beans and nut shells without deteriorating or dulling the knives. And what’s very important, Thermomix mixes the ingredients thoroughly.
Today’s class is about scrubs containing walnut shells, cinnamon, lemon, and coffee. They refer to the upcoming Christmas's scents and flavors with the scrubs’ composition.
You can prepare all the scrubs based on coconut oil, which is the best and most universal cosmetic.
FUN FACT: Do you know that coconut oil has antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial properties? It not only cares for your skin but also heals it. Perfectly soothes irritations and moisturizes the skin. It is also a great protector for your face, hands, and mouth against frost. It is suitable for all skin types, as it moisturizes on the one hand and prevents acne on the other. In fact, our skin does not need any other cosmetic to care for if we use coconut oil at home.
The scrubs that I am going to show you differs not only in composition but also in its properties. They contain ingredients that may sensitize some people, so here are three suggestions to choose from so you can pick the one that suits you best.
