With the chilly winds and cold air sweeping against our skin, it’s time to give some extra tender loving care to your body’s largest organ. And believe me, your skin will thank you.

Just a month ago I tried a sugar scrub for the first time. I massaged it into my legs and arms and rinsed it off with water before shaving. Not only did my skin feel tingly and clean as if it could finally breathe, I did not receive as much shaving burn due to my newly smooth, exfoliated skin.

As someone who’s been on a mission to try out all-natural beauty products in hopes to transition into a green beauty routine, I’ve found that making your own toxin-free, environmentally friendly products is super easy. Additionally, it’s likely that you already have most of these ingredients in your home!

The epsom salts in this scrub exfoliate the skin while the coconut oil nourishes and moisturizes. Epsom salts have also been known to soothe aching muscles. Lavender essential oil is known to be a calming agent in aromatherapy that can help with stress and anxiety. This homemade scrub is perfect gift for a loved one to enjoy a relaxing at-home spa-day.
