Week One Update- Honey Sugar Scrub Challenge




Who knew that a week could feel like forever? Well lucky for you, all you have to do is play spot the difference! And yes, the size of the photo is already a given. :)




So some things I noticed this week, to keep in mind in case you decide to try the challenge yourself.

  • The mixture separates when you leave it a while. I just mix it with a clean finger every night before I put it on my face, but I just wanted to warn you so you don’t think your honey is bad or something.
  • You can use the scrub on your lips! It worked great on removing my chapped skin off my lips and the honey acts like chap-stick! Hooray for an added bonus. Even if the face washing aspect doesn’t work, I will at least keep it for my lips. Plus you don’t have to rinse off your lips because you can just lick it off. Another perk!
  • I started this at the perfect time to really see if this honey sugar scrub prevents pimples.  My period started this week and my face breaks out pretty bad on my nose and chin. Though some pimples did arise, they were a fraction of the size they normally are during this time of the month, and they seem to be either staying the same size or reducing in size with each face wash.
So let’s make a little checklist on the claims shall we?

Moisturizing: So far, I don’t really notice much of a difference. However, I will say that my face isn’t getting as oily during the day as it did last week. But that could be the effect of my moisturizer, not the face wash.

Reduced Redness and Scar Tissue: Unfortunately not this week. The blotchy red spots and my scars are still there. But maybe next week I might notice a difference.


Prevent Acne and Pimples: Considering that this scrub had to fight against crazy female hormones, I think it did rather well at not letting them fester. But did it actually prevent pimples?  I’m going to have to say no.
