DIY Himalayan Pink Salt Body Scrub

Using a body scrub is a wonderful way to exfoliate and rejuvenate dull skin.  We are always tempted to buy the expensive ones sold at the mall when in fact we can easily make one ourselves.  Recently I bought Himalayan Pink Salt and found out it's the healthiest salt for your body and great for the skin because of it's rich mineral content that includes over 84 minerals and trace elements.  This salt is considered as the purest form of salt on Earth. The high mineral crystals range in color from sheer white, varying shades of pink, to deep reds, the result of high mineral and iron content.  It is mined from sea salt deposits from ancient sea beds and it does not contain any pollutants and chemicals that are present in today’s sea salt.  

With that being said, Himalayan Pink salt is great for this Body scrub project.  So here it is!

What you need:

• a cupful of Himalayan pink salt
• 3 - 5 drops of your favorite essential oil
• 4 tablespoons of Olive oil or Sweet Almond oil or Virgin Coconut oil
• mixing bowl
• small canning  jars

If the salts are pretty chunky like mine, this needs to be grounded up to make a finer consistency.

In a bowl add the Himalayan salt and 4 tablespoons of your choice of oil ( Sweet Almond, VCO or Olive Oil)  Next add about 3 - 5 drops of essential oil.

Stir well.  Then spoon mixture into your jar.

Use within 2 weeks.

Definitely will make your skin softer and smoother after just one use.

Makes a very nice gift and a great excuse to indulge yourself.  I hope you try this one.  Enjoy!
