Well hello there, fall! Chilly, dry weather is starting to roll in here in the Atlanta area, and I bet some of you are putting on cardigans and brewing up tea to stay warm.

When there’s less humidity in the air, it can wreak havoc on your skin, but don’t fret! It’s easy as pie to whip up a lemon facial scrub to give your face a fresh glow for fall. All you need to do is mix up equal parts olive oil, lemon juice, and sugar and massage the paste into your skin to exfoliate and moisturize.

This video shows you how simple the prep is and what the scrub will look like when it’s ready:
