    This DIY Salt Scrub with essential oils is a game changer when it comes to having smooth skin! If you are looking to combat dry skin, making a Coconut Salt Scrub is one of the best ways to do it that I've found!

    I'm not fond of reptiles.

    I can handle bugs. Even spiders are ok.

    But get me to close to a reptile, and you will find me standing on the hood of the car as hysterical as a tired toddler whose ice cream just fell on the ground.

    When you hate reptiles as much as I do, you most definitely don't want to feel like one.

    But you know...life. It happens.

    From time to time I touch my legs and get the urge to jump on that car roof.

    This happens despite the fact that I can be a bit of a product junkie, and my bathroom cabinets are filled with more lotions and potions than I'm proud of.

    Lately, since I've started making more of my products, I've found that I like many of the things I'm making more than more expensive products I buy.

    And when I like stuff, especially when I like how it smells, I will use it more often.

    Which means our car hood feels much safer.

    This DIY Salt Scrub comes together in a flash, and truthfully it has been a game changer for my skin.

    As much as I try to remember to moisturize all over after I shower, often one of the kids is pounding on the bathroom door and my time gets cut short. The coconut oil in this salt scrub is so moisturizing that I almost don't NEED to moisturize.

    I can already tell a significant difference in how my skin feels.

    Feel free to play around with the essential oils - just be conscious of which ones are phototoxic and avoid those!

    DIY Salt Scrub

    Ingredients
    1 cup coconut oil
    ½ cup Epsom Salts
    24 drops Sweet Orange Essential Oil

    Directions
    Add the coconut oil and Epsom Salts to a large bowl and stir until well combined. Add in the orange essential oil and stir until well blended.

    Transfer the mixture to a sealed glass jar and store for up to one month.

      I tried to make the coconut scrub, it is way too much liquid for me. After using about half of the oil, I can't even see the salt because most of them melted. I did add more salt afterwards and didn't put the whole cup of the coconut oil in there and it's looking ok. Maybe the salt and oil measurements needs to be reverse?

        I don't understand. How would it be too much liquid when coconut oil is solid? Did you use fractionated coconut oil instead of regular?
