CHRISTMAS DIY GIFT - AROMATIC BODY SCRUB

22/11/2016

Like your face, your body will appreciate an exfoliating treatment now and again. This recipe contains ingredients that are coarser than your face scrub because your body skin is thicker and can cope with a little more abrasion. A body scrub should never feel like sandpaper or Chinese “gua sha”. A luxurious homemade body scrub should contain lots of fresh, lovely ingredients to truly pamper your skin.
YOU WILL NEED :
- 6 tablespoon of coarse sea salt
*I personally prefer a finer grind of Epsom salt, which can be used to double up as a salt bath.
- 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon of zest
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 3-6 drops of lemon essential oil
- Juice of half a lemon

​Grind / chop the rosemary leaves finely. Put them in a bowl with the sea salt and lemon zest, and mix them together well. Add the olive oil and lemon juice to make a paste. If it is too firm, you may add a little more olive oil. Finally add the lemon essential oil (strength of scent to your preference) and give them a final, thorough mix. Dispense in little 100g glass jars and label or decorate accordingly.

This homemade scrub smells gorgeous, nothing quite like what you buy from the retail stores. It is best used in the shower – dampen your skin and gently massage the scrub in. Rinse off under the shower.
