Lime Green Tea Body Scrub
Ingredients
- 1 cup organic cane sugar
- 1 tablespoon organic matcha green tea
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- ½ cup organic melted unrefined coconut oil, don’t use warm oil as this will melt the sugar
Note: Please apply only the best possible ingredients to your skin. The above ingredients are all organic.
- Place the ingredients in the order listed into a pint-sized Mason jar, and stir to combine (a thicker chopstick works real-well). The product is now ready to use! Keep the scrub in your bathroom where you’ll use it, just be careful with the glass.
How to use:
- Wet your body
- Scoop out 1-2 teaspoons at a time of sugar scrub with clean hands or wooden spoon, gently use to slough off dead skin all over the body, avoiding the more delicate skin on the face and neck.
- Rinse off with warm water, and towel dry, leaving skin feeling revitalized and perfectly moisturized.
