Lemon Salt Scrub

I love to find homemade beauty products - especially scrubs!!  This lemon scrub sounds divine and I am excited to share it from The Beauty Department!

*Note - after reading through the comments you can make many substitutions on this recipe for example, you may substitute sugar for the salt and honey or coconut oil for the olive oil.

It’s official. Spring has arrived. That means it’s time to shed those layers and show some skin. Unfortunately, our limbs have been hiding all winter long and may not be looking their prettiest. To bring dull skin back to life, try this refreshing body scrub. Here is an easy recipe for a salt scrub that you can make with ingredients found in your own kitchen. You’re just moments away from shiny new skin.

What you will need:

5 tablespoons sea salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 lemon

First mix the olive oil and sea salt together. Once the salt gets coated by the oil, the lemon won’t dissolve it! Next cut the lemon in half and squeeze over the salt + oil. Mix and mash. (Feel free to adjust the recipe to your liking.) Then scrub away!!
