Mix the following:

1/2 c olive oil
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
2 drops lavender essential oil.

Rub scrub over your skin, rinse and dry. You can store in a plastic container for up to a month.

I like this one I found once. YOu steam your face, then wet you hands and rub a small mix of baking soda and brown sugar on your face and leave it on over night.

I'm not sure if the baking soda is natural but my face felt baby soft. and i figure i eat baking soda in foods.

I've tried using baking soda on my face but it burned so terribly, even after I washed it off. My friend crushes up aspirin and uses it as a scrub, but I think I like the sugar idea better.
