Lavender Salt Scrub
A deep-cleansing, skin-toning, invigorating scrub.
- 5 tablespoons sea salt
- 4 drops lavender essential oil
- ½ teaspoon olive oil
- water
Place salt in a bowl, drop in the lavender essential oil, stir thoroughly, add the olive oil and stir thoroughly again. Sprinkle in a small amount of water, just enough to moisten the salt mixture, and then massage into the skin. Rinse off. Makes one treatment.
