Use Those Leftover Cranberries For This Delicious DIY Body Scrub

Skin care products can be a tricky gift choice if you're not sure about the recipient's skin type. However, you can DIY a scrub that is perfect for everybody on your list this year — no matter their unique complexion requirements. Jamie Ahn, the creative director and owner of New York's Townhouse Spa, recommends this cranberry mint sugar scrub for relaxing and exfoliating on cold Winter days.

Made with natural ingredients like skin-brightening cranberries, exfoliating brown sugar, calming mint, and moisturizing coconut oil, this homemade scrub is a perfect pick for anybody with problem skin. "Cranberries are good for renewing both dry and oily skin and will give the complexion a bright glow," Ahn said. "They are also known for helping skin conditions like extremely dry skin, eczema, and psoriasis." The mix of berries and mint in this body recipe gives it a "fresh, vibrant scent." If you're still not convinced that this is the perfect DIY gift, wait until you see how easy it is to make!
