There is nothing quite like the feeling of a clean face. You scrub away all the grime of the day and feel renewed, or you wash away the sleepies and prepare for the day ahead. If you are like most people, you probably use a cleanser, potentially a toner, moisturizer, and an under-eye cream. Now, that is a perfectly fine skin care routine, but sometimes you need to clean out your pores and moisturize simultaneously. That’s why we love the brown sugar oatmeal face scrub in this article. 

Although brown sugar face scrubs are generally safe, you should always do a small patch test before using it all over your face. Use a small amount on your inner forearm. Wait 24 hours to see if you experience any itchiness, redness, or swelling. If you experience any of those symptoms, you have an allergy to one or more ingredients in the product. If that is the case, do not use it. Should you not experience any of those symptoms, feel free to use the product.

Here’s Why You’ll Love This Scrub

First of all, you don’t have to worry about the addition of unnecessary chemicals that could potentially harm your skin. Natural ingredients help clear up your skin and contribute to a natural glow. In case you didn’t know, this is not a scrub that you use daily. Using this face scrub daily may irritate the skin, due to the mildly abrasive nature of brown sugar. Ideally, you use this scrub once a week and follow it up with a moisturizer once you finish. You’ll love it because it:

• Is very easy to make
• Hydrates the skin
• Removes grease, dirt, and makeup
• Helps unclog pores
• Removes dead skin cells
• Only requires four ingredients
• Helps improve skin tone
• Improves circulation to the skin 

Benefits Of This DIY Face Scrub

This face scrub consists of four ingredients, all of which benefit the skin in different ways. We’ve detailed a few benefits of the four ingredients below:

• Brown sugar: This is the exfoliator of the scrub! Brown sugar works to remove dead skin cells, which helps improve the complexion. Due to the glycolic acid, brown sugar also helps to lock in moisture, stimulate collagen production, and cleanse your pores. 
• Oats: Working to reduce oil production and free radicals on the skin, oats help exfoliate the skin and unclog pores. If you have dry or irritated skin, use face scrubs that contain oats to help enhance the health of facial skin.
• Honey: Believe it or not, honey has mild exfoliation properties as well, but we love it because it acts as a natural humectant. That means that it helps to draw moisture into the skin, contributing to a higher moisture content. 
• Olive oil: Similar to coconut oil, olive oil exhibits anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-aging, and anti-fungal properties, all of which are beneficial to the skin. Using olive oil on the skin can help improve skin elasticity, reduce infections, and make the skin appear smoother. 

DIY Brown Sugar Oatmeal Face Scrub

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup oats, finely ground
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon raw honey

Instructions:

• Add the sugar, oats, olive oil, and honey to a clean bowl and mix well to combine. That’s it!
• When ready to use, apply a small amount of the scrub on your fingertips and massage it into your face in circular motions for one to two minutes. Leave the scrub on for a couple minutes so that the nutrients can penetrate your skin. 
• Rinse your face with warm water and pat dry with a clean towel. Use this scrub once per week.

Oh, this salad is oh, so flavorful. It’s got everything you want from a recipe: spice, zest, acid, sweet, tang, and more in every bite. Besides the impressive and refreshing flavors, this salad offers a variety of colors and textures. That makes for a more enjoyable eating experience with the added benefit of getting the various antioxidant compounds from the different-colored ingredients. Don’t let the recipe make you think that this is difficult to make, either. It comes together in a matter of 10-15 minutes and truly showcases the flavor of mango.

Traditionally, Thai mango salad is made with green mango, which is shredded or thinly sliced and mixed with red onion, cilantro, peanuts, fish sauce, and lime juice. The green mango, which is unripe, takes a similar role to green papaya, which is also unripe. Green mangos have a firm, crunchy texture and are quite tart. That’s why they are common in chutneys or pickles. Because green mangos are not as readily available in your average grocery store, we elected to use ripe mangos, which offer a juicy sweetness that complements the kick and punch of the other ingredients. Additionally, we replace the peanuts with raw cashews and, for obvious reasons, we omitted the fish sauce.

We always support culinary creativity at all times. If you feel that you have a cleanse-approved ingredient that would work well with the ones in this salad, feel free to add it in. What we do encourage is that you maintain somewhat uniform cuts for the ingredients. Slice the cucumbers and mangos thinly and on a diagonal so that they can be similar to the thinly sliced onions. Lastly, we only included red pepper flakes, not Thai chilies, because we care about not burning your taste buds off!

Popsicles may be the most enjoyable frozen treats for kids, but you can refresh your palate as an adult with these desserts as well. Nothing cools you off like a frozen treat from the freezer on a warmer spring day. Now, the weather isn’t just instantaneously hot just because spring has sprung. That said, it is warming up and there is nothing quite like the newest crave-able popsicle straight out of your kitchen.

Allow us to introduce you to our raw vegan cantaloupe popsicles! Perfectly cleanse-approved and undeniably delicious, these popsicles are based on creamy melon bars, which are commonly made with honeydew. Cantaloupe, however, is a little creamier, and the texture of these pops is more akin to a creamsicle. The only difference is that these popsicles contain three ingredients, not 45 mysterious ingredients, many of which you cannot even pronounce. You can truly taste the difference, and you’ll feel the difference, too!

When it comes to making your own popsicles, we recommend that you use silicone molds. The classic plastic popsicle molds make it difficult to get the popsicles out. Silicone molds make this process so much easier, especially if you run the molds under a little warm water to aid the removal process. Just make sure that the popsicles are completely frozen before you try to remove them. This typically takes about four to six hours, but may require more time. Once you finish your cleanse, you can use coconut milk in place of homemade almond milk. The coconut milk yields a creamier consistency.

Omega-3 fatty acids, commonly referred to as omega-3s, are healthy fats that have powerful antioxidant effects in the body. According to research studies, omega-3s work to benefit everything from brain health and immunity to heart function. Even though these foods are essential for overall health, close to 90% of Americans do not meet the recommended daily intake of omega-3s. That is even true for people who eat fish on a weekly basis!

What Are Omega-3s?

First off, there are two main types of fatty acids: saturated and unsaturated. Unsaturated fat breaks down into polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are terms you commonly see on nutrition facts labels. These chain-like molecules are made up of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms. Carbon atoms form the foundation of the chain and oxygen and hydrogen atoms latch onto available slots.

A monounsaturated fat has one open slot, while a polyunsaturated fat has more than one open slot. Contrarily, saturated fat has no open slots and is typically referred to as “bad” or “unhealthy.” The reason saturated fats are labeled as such is because they increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Unsaturated fats, such as omega-3s, are healthy because they support the heart and brain and may reduce inflammation within the body. 

Because the body cannot produce a sufficient amount of omega-3s necessary for its own survival, you have to obtain them from the foods you eat. The specific types of omega-3s include DHA and EPA, which you can find in seafood, and ALA, which exists in plants. Great foods to increase your omega-3 consumption include mackerel, salmon, and other fatty fish, or flaxseed, chia seeds, avocados, walnuts, and other plant-based foods. Failure to eat these foods may yield a few signs that indicate low omega-3 levels. Continue reading to learn more.

Low Mood

Your mood is closely tied to the health of your brain, which oversees serotonin and dopamine, two feel-good hormones. Researchers are not exactly clear how omega-3s like EPA and DHA influence how the body uses and responds to those hormones. What the research does say, however, is that low levels of omega-3s can compromise a person’s mental health. Taking an omega-3 supplement, such as the Dherbs Omega 3 Formula, may assist in elevating your mood and outlook.

Dry And Tired Eyes

Staring at screens all day is a great way to fatigue your eyes. If your eyes are particularly parched, though, you may be low in omega-3s. Both EPA and DHA help ensure that the cells in the retina function optimally. According to research, omega-3s help the eyes combat oxidative stress, so don’t believe that carrots are the only vegetable beneficial for eye health.

Dry Or Irritated Skin

There are numerous causes for dry, scaly, red, or irritated skin. If you use cleansers, lotions, serums, and body butters to improve the skin quality and nothing calms irritated skin, you may need to increase your omega-3 intake. According to researchers, omega-3s support the skin barrier, helping to seal in moisture and keep environmental pollutants out. Additional research shows that increasing your intake of omega-3s, especially through supplements, can help improve the texture, tone, and overall appearance of skin. 

Brain Fog

Both EPA and DHA contribute to the structure of cell membranes in the brain, in addition to aiding the communication between cells. One study involving 176 adults with low omega-3 intake found that supplementing with 1.16 grams of DHA daily for six months was able to improve episodic and working memory when compared to the placebo group. Feeling a little sluggish and unclear mentally? Improve concentration and find a clearing in the fog by increasing your omega-3 intake.

‘Tis the season for holiday treats and countless sweets. Unfortunately, that mentality is why people tend to gain weight this time of year. The sweets and treats have a little something to do with that weight gain as well. They are not nutritious and tend to contain a lot of empty calories, so you keep coming back for more because they are usually made of refined sugars and carbs. We still want you (and our cleansers!) to enjoy some holiday goodies, which is why we are giving you this recipe for chocolate gingerbread energy bites. Think of them like healthier cookies!

If you were looking for a cookie swap, these gingerbread energy bites are your bet bet. They contain raw almonds, Medjool dates, raw cacao, and a handful of spices that make them taste like holiday cookies. If the mixture gets a little dry, you can add a tablespoon of raw almond butter or water to. help it along. Additionally, you can soak the almonds and dates in water a little while before you blend the ingredients together in the food processor. Soaking will soften the nuts and dates, which eases the blending process.

Now, some people prefer chunky cookies, while others enjoy soft cookies that are easy to eat. The same applies to nut butters. Do you prefer chunky or smooth? Whichever you version you enjoy is the right one! You can blend the ingredients until you achieve a texture that you are happy with. Once you achieve your desired texture, wet your hands and roll the mixture into bite-size balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and then place them in the freezer to harden. We hope you love them! Let us know in the comments below!

While you are using one of our many cleanses, you have to avoid certain foods, including rice paper wraps. Those rice paper wraps can be tricky to use, as they tend to stick to themselves or tear easily. Allow us to remove them from the equation and replace them with sturdy, raw collard greens for this recipe. Roll up the different vegetables as tight as you can and then dip the wraps in the highly addictive almond butter sauce. Not only are these wraps backed to the gills with nutrients, but they are also bursting with flavor. Trust us when we tell you that dipping sauce is life!

As a quick note, you can use rainbow chard or Swiss chard if you cannot find raw collard greens. If you prefer the taste of chard to collards, go with chard instead. Both greens serve as great wraps that hold up nicely with all of the ingredients inside. Additionally, if you want sauce in every bite and don’t want to dip the wraps, pour some of the dipping sauce on the ingredients in the wraps before rolling them up. Speaking of the filling ingredients, you can swap those out with others that you prefer. Do you prefer carrots instead of red bell peppers? Swap them out!

Once you have all of your ingredients prepped, make sure to lay them out on a work station so they are easily accessible when you roll up the greens. Additionally, remove the ends of the thicker stems from the greens, as those stems are fibrous and bitter. You can open the leaves and roll up the ingredients like a burrito, or you can fold the leaves in half, line up the ingredients, and roll them up that way. Roll as you please, but make sure that you do one thing: Enjoy the meal!
