Coconut Lime Sugar Scrub
So, we are soon coming to the end of another summer and we want to make these last few weeks last. How about pampering yourself with a bit of the tropics? Nothing feels as silky smooth as skin that has just gone through a vigorous sugar scrub. And nothing smells more tropical than coconut.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I have. This stuff smells good enough to eat!
1/4 C. Coconut oil, melted
1 Tbs. Grape seed oil
1 C. white sugar (can always substitute if you prefer)
1 Tbs. shredded coconut
15 drops Lime essential oil
1 Tbs. Grape seed oil
1 C. white sugar (can always substitute if you prefer)
1 Tbs. shredded coconut
15 drops Lime essential oil
Melt your coconut oil and combine with the grapeseed oil. Stir in remaining ingredients and store in an airtight container. To use: rub into your skin gently while bathing or showering and enjoy.
*this particular recipe has a firmer consistency than most sugar scrubs as the coconut oil becomes a solid state in temps under 76 degrees. If you live in warmer climates and/or prefer a more liquid consistency simply adjust the coconut and grape seed oils accordingly.
