i've tried sugar with some lemon squeeze (oh but be careful coz it really hurts when applied to an acne prone area) or if you have dry skin you can use some baby oil instead


if you have oily skin try mixing honey, sugar and oatmeal
I've heard of many variations and even tried a few of them. For some ideas, here is a website with some recipes:
