*Thank you Google for the images; I'll upload my own soon!* Exfoliate and moisturise in one with this face scrub. I use it 1-2 times a week, and it makes my skin feel extremely clean and soft. It's really simple and cheap to make. ^^ If you have oily skin like I do, you can omit the milk, and add a few drops of lemon juice.

Pour a few tablespoons of honey into a microwave-safe dish. I tend to use about 3 tablespoons, but more/less is fine. Microwave for a few seconds on high until melted. Be very careful when you take it out, it will be extremely hot!
Pour in the milk (lemon juice if not using milk) and stir until combined with the honey.
Add about 2 tablespoons of sugar to the mix. I use regular white granulated sugar, but you can use brown or caster. Stir a tiny bit to soak the sugar in the mix, but don't let it dissolve.
Cleanse your face with just water, and leave wet. Dip a cotton ball into the mix, (Or use your fingers if you don't mind getting them covered in honey xD) and apply the warm mix all over your face, in small circular motions. The sugar in the mix will help exfoliate, and the milk and honey will moisturise. If you're using lemon juice, it should help to mattify.
Yes, it /will/ feel gross for a bit. xD Leave it on your face for about 10-15 minutes. Rinse off gently to avoid getting the sugar into your eyes, or it scratching your face.
Your skin should feel clean, soft and smooth after using. :)
