Make Your Own Salt Body Scrub

There are several benefits to using a salt body scrub. When the scrub is rubbed over the skin, it removes the surface layer of dead skin cells.

After it is rinsed off, the newer, younger skin cells are left on the surface, giving the skin a smooth feel and youthful appearance.

In addition to the external physical benefits, the salt helps open pores and draw out toxins. The act of massaging the body scrub into the skin increases circulation, relaxes muscles, and helps alleviate tension.

Sea Salt Body Scrub:

1 cup fine sea salt
½ cup grape-seed, hazelnut, or almond oil
10 drops grapefruit essential oil
10 drops juniper essential oil

Simply mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl and use on wet skin. Simple!
