Homemade Sugar Scrub

I just wanted to do a short post today and share a homemade body scrub that is so easy to make. It's from Stacy at A Delightful Home. It's a Lemon Lime Sugar Scrub which smells divine and has no nasties in it. Here is the link to her original post, she has lots of lovely recipes for all sorts of things. Her sugar scrub E-Book is fantastic!

Lemon Lime Sugar Scrub

1/3 cup coconut oil, melted over low heat.
2 cups sugar (I use raw sugar)
20 drops lime essential oil
3-5 drops lemon essential oil
3 drops orange essential oil
3 drops bergamot essential oil
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

(May substitute Safflower, Jojoba or Avocado oil. Or make a mix of a few of these to add up to ½ cup)

Method

Mix all ingredients, except for olive oil, in a large bowl.
Gradually add olive until you reach the desired consistency.
Scrub on desired area and rinse off with water.

Coconut oil is available in a jar from the health food section of your supermarket or at health food shops. This scrub is gorgeous and will last for ages. I keep a tub of it in my shower.

Enjoy!
