Natural DIY Body + Lip Scrub

I thought I'd share a very simple and natural "Do it Yourself" Body scrub that I've recently been LOVING!
I love it because it exfoliates my body in such a gentle manner, its so nourishing and all you need is 2 common house hold ingredients!!

What you will need: 

• 2 teaspoons of Coconut oil (organic virgin coconut oil would be the best choice) 
• 2 teaspoons of Brown sugar 
• a mixing bowl
• a spoon 
• may need a microwave
• a container to store your mixture

 Method:

• Mix the coconut oil and brown sugar together in a bowl
• To soften the coconut oil, place the bowl in the microwave for 15-20 seconds
• Mix it all together
• Optional: Mix in more sugar to make it even more exfoliating or mix in more coconut oil to make it more moisturizing and smooth (your preference)

 

Fill an empty container with this home-made scrub and place it in the shower for easy use.

..and BAM you have made an incredibly gentle, nourishing and exfoliating body scrub. This leaves my body feeling so soft and supple, that I don't even feel the need to moisturize after showering. This also works as an amazing lip scrub to get rid of any flakes and residue and leaves your lips feeling silky smooth (and yummy).
