Fall is a time for nesting, getting cozy and taking care of yourself and those you love. One way to treat yourself– or someone you care about– to a little "TLC" is to make a simple scrub. Citrus is fresh and invigorating and somehow reminicent of the holiday season.
Ingredients
1 cup sea salt
1/2 cup grapeseed oil
17 drops of orange essential oil
Directions
Place the salt in a widemouthed jar and mix with grapeseed oil
Scent with essential oil
To Use
Dampen area you want to scrub
Using a loofah, rub the mixture into the skin
Rinse
To make it fun, stamp "Citrus Scrub" on a craft stick/scrub stirrer and embellish with a handmade cloth flower.
Aaahhh…

I Love Scrubs and the smell of fresh citrus!
What a perfect combo!
Scrubbing is best to remove all kind of the dead cells and skin from our body.If its home made then its more beneficial for your healthy,soft and shiny skin.I really like to read your sharing.
I love how you packaged this up. What a wonderful gift!

Citrus is one of my favorite scents, almost as good as coffee in the morning! (I said almost!) Thanks for this recipe!
Hi Malia!! This looks like such an amazing gift idea. I love the citrus scent and the way you packaged it is darling! I featured you today! http://www.flamingotoes.com/2011/09/a-little-pot-holder-love/

So great. Now when are you going to teach us how to make the darling flower? :)
Malia, what a perfect scrub. Makes such a lovely gift!

I can smell it now…and you packaged it so cute!
I can’t wait to try to make this! I’m going to make scrubs for Christmas gifts. How much does one batch yield? WHat is the shelf life? Lastly, is the grape seed oil and orange essential oils easy to find? I know a lot of people use zest but I’d prefer orange essential oil :) Thank you! Terra
