Description
A simple and effective DIY salt scrub recipe that helps unlock radiant skin.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup / 180 g / 6.3 oz fine grain salt (e.g. Pink Himalayan, Pacific, Dead Sea salt or Epsom salt)
- 4 tbsp / 50 g / 1.7 oz fractionated coconut oil
- 2 tbsp / 30 g / 1 oz shea butter
- 3 tbsp / 15 g / 0.5 oz Olivem 1000
- 1/2 tsp blue spirulina powder
- 24 drops lemon essential oil (steam distilled)
- 15 drops lime essential oil (steam distilled)
- 10 drops spearmint essential oil
- 10 drops blue cypress essential oil
Instructions
- Optionally, place the salt in a food processor or blender and pulse a couple of times. Extra fine salt is gentler on the skin. Beware of the dust cloud when opening the food processor.
- Put the shea butter and Olivem 1000 in a heat-proof measuring cup and melt in a warm water bath until liquid. Protect your hands when handling hot tools.
- Add the fractionated coconut oil, essential oils and spirulina powder. Mix until well-combined.
- Fill the sea salt into a large mixing bowl. Pour the oil base over the salt and whisk until well combined.
- Transfer the salt scrub recipe into an airtight jar or storage container.
Notes
- Store the scrub in a cool, dry place for best results.
- Test a small amount on your skin to ensure no allergic reactions.
- Use within 6 months for optimal freshness.
