Supplies…

• 2 1/2 cup Epsom Salt
• 25-30 drops doTERRA Lime Essential Oil
• 6 Tablespoons doTERRA Coconut Oil
• 3 Tablespoons Vitamin E Oil

• 1/2 cup Shredded Coconut

The supplies are rather simple and I’ve included links at the bottom of this post to make your shopping easy.

Feel free to add or change things up a bit.  It seems like it would be hard to really mess up.  This recipe will give you a fresh smelling body scrub that leaves you skin feeling amazing!

You can mix this up in just a few minutes!

Start by adding your Epsom Salt to a large bowl or measuring cup.

There are a million uses for Epsom Salt, and when you read about all the health benefits you’ll decide to add it to everything…lol!

Add the coconut oil and vitamin E to the salt.  Mix it up.

Add your doTERRA Lime Essential Oil.  Yes, I sell it.  Why? Because it’s awesome and I’ve been using these oils for years.  The quality is amazing, the health benefits are fabulous and you can use so much less than cheaper brands for a project like this.  Trust me!

Mix it up again.  I added the zest of a lime to the mix for a touch of color.

Mix it up again and this is what you have…Lime & Coconut Body Scrub.

Don’t you think they would make a sweet little gift?  I wish you could smell these…the whole office is smells amazing!

Use a 2-3 tablespoons, or use just a tablespoon for hand washing.  Your hands will thank you!

Wasn’t that easy??

Just trim them or use a large hole punch to make them fit to your container. I’m a major fan of this size mason jar and these little wood scoops.  I feel like they take it to a whole new level of homemade goodness.  Add a ribbon or twine and you are finished!
