Everyone seemed to enjoy my rosemary spearmint sugar scrub so much that I decided to share my summer favorite as well! It's refreshing for your senses and your feet! It is a great shower favor, quick gift, treat for yourself or a hostess gift when you are welcomed to a friend's beach house. This jar will keep my skin happy all summer long!
Did I mention that you likely have all of the ingredients on hand?
Ingredients:
lemon, orange or 2 limes
oil - I chose vitamin E, but almond oil, grape seed oil or even olive oil will work!
sugar
Zest one orange, lemon or two limes into a bowl
Add 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup oil
Stir and add to your container. I had this little canning jar left from my summer salad dressing and fleur de del caramel sauce, but you can purchase these or sealable spice jars.
Isn't she sweet?
You can see the texture...
Time: 5 minutes
Great for summer. For winter, add a little cinnamon!
For a relaxing bath, check out my lavender mint softening soak.

Just made this today. It smells good enough to eat. Though I was wondering how long the shelf life of this would be?
Doesn't it? It keeps for a couple months when stored in an air tight container.
i dont have any of the oils you mentioned on hand and want to make some right now. would coconut oil work with some lime. (you put the lime in the coconut...)
