I’m sure I’m not the only one, but my dry skin can be overbearing at times. With the cold weather and everything else that life throws at you, it might be difficult to care for your skin the way you should. As someone who wears makeup regularly, it’s important that I do more to care for my dry skin in order to have a flawless finish. Here’s the most effective beauty hack for dry skin I’ve stumbled upon.

To complete this awesome trick, all you need is half a lemon, a little bit of sugar and, of course, some oil. I chose to use olive oil, but any oil that your skin is compatible with should work well with this. The first thing I did was remove all seeds from the lemon. Next, I took a little bit of sugar and placed it on the lemon, pushing down to form a paste. Then I added a little bit of olive oil to the top, still gently pushing down on the sugar. Finally, I took the lemon and began to scrub my face. I washed it off with cold water and pat my face dry. And that’s it! How easy was that?

This hack is perfect for those with dry skin. It’s basically a lemon scrub that works to remove dead skin from your face. The lemon is great for naturally brightening those dark spots. The sugar is great for exfoliation and removing the dead skin while the oil enhances the exfoliation and moisturizes the skin. This triple threat is sure to do your skin some good, and it’s so easy that you’ll be hooked.
