Exfoliating Facial Scrub
. . .and an all
over body scrub too!
Lynn's
exfoliating scrub is great for an overall body treatment
too!
Lynn loves this particular recipe that she created because it leaves
her skin feeling wonderfully soft and rejuvenated.
Lynn
describes Saturday mornings as "me" time after the stresses of a busy
week. She spends this time giving herself a spa treatment at home.
Thank
you for sharing Lynn!
Lynn makes up a big batch of her scrub recipe and
seals it in an air
tight container so that she can have it handy in the bathroom whenever
she wants to indulge in a quick refreshing scrub.
Just a word of warning ~ don't scrub too hard!
She has also created a lovely moisturizing facial and body cream that
she will send along soon so stay posted!

Exfoliating Facial Scrub ~
- 5 ml olive oil
- 20 grams shea butter
- 6 grams beeswax
- 3/4 shot glass of sea salt
- 10 drops grapefruit essential oil
- Melt shea butter and beeswax together over very
low heat
- Add in the olive oil and mix well
The mixture will thicken as it cools. When it is halfway set and fairly
cool, add the sea salt and grapefruit essential oil. Mix well and
transfer to a sterilized glass jar.
Use after showering while the skin is still damp.
Massage into face and body using lighter pressure over delicate skin
areas and deeper pressure over areas that have particularly dry, rough
skin such as heels.
Rinse well and pat dry. Follow with an extra rich
body butter. Use scrub once at least once a week for silky smooth skin.
