Lemon Sugar Scrub:
- Zest from 1 lemon
- Juice from 1 lemon (~1/4 cup)
- 2 1/2-3 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 20 drops lemon essential oil
Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and olive oil to a bowl. Add in sugar and mix. If you want it thicker, add more sugar. Add essential oil and stir together until well blended.
This scrub is great for hands, feet, and anywhere you feel dry. I use this every other day on my face. It keeps my skin hydrated and healthy.
Apply to skin and scrub in gentle circular motions. Let sit on skin for 2-4 minutes for best benefits. Rinse off and enjoy your fresh feeling skin.
