So soft, so mmmmmm…
Very quick here, because life is so… lifey today.
The following sugar body scrub recipe, which I found in Natural Health, is lovely for summer skin, and a great way to use up that lame generic honey taking up sticky space in the pantry:
- 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup almond oil
Stir it all together, ensuring the sugar is still coarse. Spoon into an air-tight, glass container and keep somewhere cool and dark (read: NOT the shower).
I plan to use the delicious stuff once a week or so. All you do is scrub your wet skin in the shower, paying special attention to rough elbows, knees and feet, and rinse off. Be careful not to slip, as the oil makes the shower floor a bit slick.
Note: I used apricot oil instead of almond oil, because it was all I had. I imagine any carrier oil would be fine.
Happy Hump Day!
