Baby oil which is" mineral oil is a petroleum ingredient. It comes from crude oil and and is used as a metal cutting fluid. It coats the skin like plastic wrap. When applied, mineral oil can promote acne and other skin disorders. Mineral oil also slows down normal cell development and causes the skin to prematurely age. The most significant hazard is that mineral oil blocks the pores of the skin. This does not allow the skin to breathe and prevents the natural release of toxins from the skin. Since the skin is the body's largest elimination organ, this is a serious health hazard".

Hi Ashley! I'm an Esthetician who graduated from Florida College of Natural Health and also have studied herbology. I have practiced being a vegetarian and a naturalist for over ten years. Isn't it great to make your own scrubs, I love it! First off let me say great presentation but I have to say not so great ingredients. If your going to make a sea/salt scrub from scratch why would you use a major corporation's line of baby oil. In case you don't know baby oil is made from mineral oil which is not good for the skin, it clogs the pores. Your better off using a carrier oil like olive, jojoba, apricot seed kernel, or even hemp oil. The Vitamin E is awesome, great choice!

I'm Ashley Johnson with Expert Village. Now we are going to talk about the materials that you need in order to make a salt scrub. First thing that you need is salt. Now one thing with the salt; I would recommend using sea salt instead of just regular salt. There are two different types of sea salt that you could get. You can get a fine one or you can also get one that is more coarse. And this is all personal preference. I like to use the coarse salt because I only use the salt scrub about once a month. Now if you want it finer it's going to feel a little bit closer to what the sugar scrub feels like. The next thing you are going to have is once again a jar. You can have them big. You can have them small. You can have them cute colorful doesn't matter. Vitamin E once again because it's good for your skin. Anyone who has ever been pregnant before and has stretch marks you know that people put vitamin E on the stretch marks. It just helps fade scars away. A fragrance that I normally use when I make a salt scrub is something that's clean and kind of a beachy smell. That way any time I use my salt scrub I feel like I am at the beach. And once again you need your baby oil and your ribbon. So let's go ahead and make our own.
