making body scrub

[Olive]

hope this is in the right area, has anyone made their own body scrub??? i have the rock salts and heaps of essential oil and have thought about making my own for hands feet etc... but not sure how!!

Jols, I think I've heard of making one with honey and sugar etc? Maybe google it and see what you come up with

Whenever I am out of scrub and I need a quick fix I just use honey and raw sugar. Don't think that you can make it up ahead though cause the sugar might desolve. I do find that the sugar and honey seems to work better than anything else that I buy in the shops and leaves my skin feeling really soft and smooth.

I use vegetable oil and sugar.2 parts suger to 1 part oil (or whatever consistency you prefer). Somtimes if I have any I add coffee grounds too for the caffeine.

I just rub it on in the shower boefre I turn the water on cos it's a bit messy.

I second kim's suggestion of oil and sugar.

I put some sugar, a few drops of essential oil for smell and a tablespoon of oil then rub it on in the shower but without the water running. Oil leaves a nice film on your body. (I just use vegetable oil, but I guess that sweet almond oil would be better).

This is incredibly cheap, much more so that store bought ones. I also use it as a hand scrub.
