Peppermint Foot/Body Scrub

IMG_5922

I really enjoy a pedicure, but don't really like to spend the money. So I make my own foot scrub, then beg Dave to use it on my tired feet...he's such a good sport.

I recommend soaking your feet in warm water before using the scrub (the warm wetness helps with the lubrication of the oil)

I also just keep a jar in my shower and rub it all over as an exfoliating/moisturizing rub before getting out of the shower --in place of lotion after the shower...but be careful it makes the tub slippery!

Its super simple to make:

1/2 c coconut oil

1/2 c real salt

20 drops peppermint essential oil --or any essential oil you like--I like the cooling smell of peppermint Vitamin E oil (optional)

Use a hand mixer to whip until blended. Store in a jar and keep in your shower or bath tub.

Enjoy!
