Beautiful Body: Coconut Scrub


Coconut oil is a beauty blessing. The edible oil is not only great for cooking, but works beauty miracles. I give my self a coconut oil hair mask weekly. I use coconut oil as a make-up remover; and I use it to make a moisture rich exfoliating sugar scrub. 

Coconut oil is great for those with dry skin. The fat in the coconut oil is great for reducing the appearance of wrinkles. In audition coconut oil can help with annoying skin problems such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. Coconut oil is often a star ingredient in a lot of expensive skin creams. Fortunately; you save money by making your own Coconut Sugar Scrub. 

Coconut Oil can be bought at health food stores, or found online. 

 Coconut Sugar Scrub


Ingredients:
1 coconut oil
2 cups sugar
Essential lemon Oil


Preparation
Mix one cup extra virgin coconut oil with 2 cup organic sugar.
 (choose a sugar that is relatively fine, and not to coarse.)


To energize your sugar scrub and a few drops of lemon or grapefruit oil.

 Mix the ingredients well; until the sugar, oil, and essential oil is all mixed together.

Store in a mason jar, or empty beauty container.


Enjoy your skin, silky smooth!
