Body Scrub
Body scrubs are easy to make, great exfoliators, and the
perfect scent when you make them at home. Try this basic salt scrub for
starters.
- 1 cup fine sea salt
- 1/2 cup almond oil
- 10-20 drops essential or skin-safe fragrance oils
Put the salt in a container, add the almond oil, then
the essentials. Stir well with a glass, plastic or wooden implement.
Decant off any excess oil.
To use, simply scoop out a small amount and scrub over
damp skin, then rinse away. This recipie will leave a moisturizing oil
film on the skin.
Try the following variations:
- Use aloe gel instead of almond oil to make a "drier" scrub.
- Try brown sugar in place of salt for a gentler scrub.
