Bella Breakdown
After all the spring cleaning you’ve been doing, what could be better than three different and delicious body scrubs! These ingredients can be swapped out with other fruit or flowers to fir your mood and they also make great gifts! Mother’s Day’s just around the corner (hint, hint).
For every scrub you’ll need a smoothing ingredient like almond oil, a scrubbing ingredient like sea salt or sugar crystals and a sweetening ingredient like honey or essential oils. You’ll also want to grab a cutting board and knife for chopping ingredients and a bowl, whisk and spoon for blending them together. Finally you’ll need a cute airtight container to put your scrub in.
Sweet Lemon Ginger Face Scrub
The first scrub we’ll be making is the Sweet Lemon Ginger Face Scrub. For that you’ll need:
•1 Tbsp. Almond Oil
•2 Tbsp. Honey
•1 c. Coarse Sugar
•1 Bulb of Ginger
•Fresh Lemon Juice
Start by squeezing the juice from one lemon into you bowl and add your almond oil and whisk together. Next, add your honey and whisk until the mixture thickens slightly. Then, add your sugar and combine. Finally, peel your ginger and sugar and add the chopped pieces to your zesty amazing scrub.
Sea Salt Lavender Body Scrub
The second scrub is a wonderful Sea Salt Lavender Body Scrub. So gather up these ingredients and a fresh bowl:
•2 Tbsp. Almond Oil
•1/2 c. Coconut Oil
•1/3 c. Sea Salt
•1 c. Fine Salt
•Lavender Essential Oil
All you need to do is repeat those steps from above, mixing in your oils first. Then, add in your salts and combine with a few drops of your essential oil. You can add in a few crushed lavender blossoms if you’ve got them and pack into your container.
Luscious Mint Lip Scrub
Last but certainly not least is an amazing Luscious Mint Lip Scrub. Just grab:
