skin feeling a little dry?

one of my favorite bloggers

blogged about how to make this organic

sugar scrub and I decided I was

going to make some of my own today.

Peppermint Sugar Scrub

 

3 cups sugar

1/2 cup baby oil (or light olive oil)

several drops of peppermint essential oil

1/2 cup melted coconut oil

 

that's it!

you melt the coconut oil in the microwave for

1 minute, then add the remaining

3 ingredients. mix well and put in

 shower safe containers with a lid.

 

This exfoliates, invigorates and moisturizes.

what could be better?

*while bathing or showering just rub it on
your skin with a washcloth or your hand and then rinse off.

 

 

this is the coconut oil before melting.

have you heard all the health benefits of

this oil yet? I've used it for cooking, gargled with it

for gum health and now I've used it in a bath scrub.

 

 

so melt the oil, add the rest

and stir till well mixed and put in your containers.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 You can use other essential oils instead of peppermint too.

I'd like to try lavender and eucalyptus next.

 

Wouldn't these make a fun little surprise for

a girlfriend?
