Body scrub recipes are all over the web these days. There’s a reason for that – they are easy and they work. Sloughing off that dead skin feels so refreshing. We should treat ourselves to a good body buffing on a regular basis. I made a recipe for an energizing and exfoliating body scrub recipe. It’s so easy and took me minutes to make.

Instructions:

  1. Melt coconut oil and mix with sea salt.

Bath Gloves: You don’t even need a body scrub with these gloves. Just add your favorite body wash and gently scrub your body squeaky clean. The textured nylon gloves provide an invigorating experience, leaving you fresh and ready to tackle the day.

Luxury Bath Brush: Don’t miss that pesky spot on your back again. This luxurious brush is made with extra-plush netting, to help give your skin a glow from head to toe.

Natural-Fiber Loofah: Loofahs have been around for a long time. Growing up there was always a loofah in our bath tub. To this day, they remain a fantastic way to slough off dry or flaky skin.

2-in-1 Loofah Body Buff: Exfoliates like a loofah, but also buffs for a polished look. (Do we sound like cars yet?)

Skin Smoothing Beauty Massager: Create a rich lather to cleanse, smooth, polish, and unveil your best looking skin.
