Body Scrub

Body Scrub
We hate having dry skin during the winter!  Body scrub is fantastic-it removes dead skin cells and leaves your skin feeling super soft.  We found a way to make your own body scrub with household ingredients that only costs about $5 total, instead of the $20+ you would spend at the store!
 
Ingredients
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 cups sugar in the raw
1 tbsp honey
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp vanilla extract
 
1. Combine the sugars in a bowl.
2. Add olive oil to bowl, and stir together.
3. Mix in honey and vanilla.
4. Store mixture in an airtight jar (ex. mason jar) to store it
 
This is a semi-coarse scrub.  If you would like a more coarse scrub, use 1/2 sugar and 2 cups sugar in the raw.  If you would like a more gentle scrub, use 1/2 sugar and 2 cups of brown sugar.  This scrub smells great, and is made from ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen!  It's totally edible too (if you're into that kind of thing).
