DIY Facial & Body Scrubs Made with Red Wine:
Why Red Wine?
Red wine packed with antioxidants like flavonoid, resveratrol and tannin which are very good for the skin. It helps to fight free radicals and aging by restoring collagen and elastic fibers. This helps to plump out the wrinkles and gives a boost to sagging skin.
1. Wine & Sugar Scrub
Add this scrub to your beauty rituals! The sugar gently exfoliates the skin, honey moisturizes and soothes dry skin. The red wine will improve blood circulation to give you healthy skin.
Ingredients
  • 1/2 c granulated sugar
  • 1/2 c brown sugar
  • 3-4 tsp honey
  • 3-4 tbsp red wine
Directions: Combine all the above ingredients together in a bowl. Mixture is ready to use and can be stored in the fridge for 2 days.
2. Red Wine Exfoliant: Mix 3 tablespoons red wine in 2 teaspoons of oatmeal. Apply the mixture to your face and gently massage your skin in a circular motion. This will remove dead skin cells to give you clear and glowing skin.

3. Green Tea & Red Wine Face Mask
Ingredients:
  • 1 green tea bag
  • 1 tablespoon of red wine
  • 1 tablespoon of yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons of honey
Directions: Brew a cup of green tea and set aside. In a bowl, add honey and microwave it for about 10-20 seconds. Mix the red wine and yogurt into the bowl of honey until well incorporated. Add about a tablespoon or more of green tea into the bowl and mix until you have a nice even, red-looking paste. Apply the mask to your face and let it sit for about 15 minutes to allow the nutrients to soak into the skin before washing it off with lukewarm water.
