Lavender Salt Scrub // Clean Living

Round two of the salt scrubs. This particular scrub uses lavender which is calming and soothing, making it a great scrub to use right before bed. 

ingredients:


1/2 cup sea salt
1 tbsp lavender seeds
10 drops lavender essential oil
2 tbsp coconut oil (jojoba and grapeseed oil works as well)

Begin by melting the oil on the stove top. Once melted, pour into a glass bowl. Stir in the lavender seeds and oil. Lastly, mix in the salt and store in a sealable container.  You want the texture to be smooth with no clumps but where no extra oil is sitting in the bottom of the bowl, so you may need to add extra salt to create the desired texture. 

tip* try adding in a tsp of honey to the mix for extra smooth skin. Enjoy!

  8. your work has inspired me to pull out my camera again.
    i used to be a photographer, but with my new job, there wasn't time to do weddings and things anymore. it was a fine transition, and i don't mind it all, but i miss taking photos. thank you for reminding me how lovely photography is, even as a creative outlet!
    great recipe by the way!
