Oatmeal Facial Scrub.
Oats have a very quick and surprising effect on the skin. This, I believe is the most reliable scrub recipe for me as it really worked for tan removal. All that is required for this include a cup of oatmeal, honey, milk to settle the scrub and a tablespoon of gram flour. These ingredients are mixed well until it gives a thickening effect. Oatmeal and honey are very effective for sensitive skin as oatmeal is gentle when applied and has no inflammatory effects. I tested this on my skin twice a week and I could surely say that it really whitened my skin to its natural tone and evenly exfoliated it too.

Seas Salt and Citrus Scrub
Sea salt mixed with your preferable extract of citrus fruit like lemon, orange, etc deeply cleanses the skin and freshen it up. The ingredients needed for this are sea salt mixed with sugar, lemon or orange extract, crushed mint, and coconut oil. These, when evenly mixed together, turn out in a naturally scented scrub that tones the skin and keeps it refreshing.
