How to Make A Homemade Salt Scrub

Soften rough skin and create a home-spa experience with all natural, organic ingredients.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Air tight container
• 1-2 cups course ground rock salt
• 1-2 cups grapeseed oil
• 1/2 tsp essential oil of choice
• 1 tsp vitamin E oil, or, contents of 5-6 vitamin E gel-caps

1. Combine salt, grape seed oil and vitamin E oil in large bowl, mixing well so that all salt is well moistened.

2. Drop by drop, add essential oil and combine until aroma is of desired strength. Different oils will require different quantities due to potency, and individual people like differing levels of scent.

3. Keep in airtight container, and mix well with each use. Do not store open to preserve scent.

4. To use: moisten and clean surface dirt from skin and massage salt scrub into rough, dry skin, using a gentle circular motion. Rinse well, pat dry. Finish with lotion of choice. Salt scrubs are ideal for calloused dry feet of summer!

Tips & Warnings

• Do not exceed 1/2 tsp essential oil per cup of grape seed oil; essential oils are very concentrated and may be irritating to the skin in large quantity.
