DIY Peppermint Body Scrub

Today I have teamed up with some creative blogging friends to bring you a homemade holiday gift, perfect for a teacher, friend, or loved one.  I don't know about you, but my skin really suffers from the changing of the weather.  As it gets colder out, I notice my skin feels dry and rough.  I'm always looking for a body scrub that I can use to heal and soothe my sore skin.  

I think all women enjoy pampering themselves and there is no better gift than a homemade body scrub to make them feel special this season.

This project is so simple, I may just start whipping up huge batches for all my friends and family!

Here's how I made it.

Ingredients: (I doubled this recipe for one 16 oz jar of scrub.)

Coconut Oil

Epsom Salt

Food Coloring (optional)

Essential Oil

Ball Jars (I used wide mouth)

Instructions:

1.Mix together 1/2 cup of Epsom Salt and 1/2 cup of Coconut Oil

2. Add food coloring (optional) and Essential Oil. 

3. Create a gift tag or sticker for the Mason Jar and tie on a ribbon.

I can't imagine a nicer gift for a teacher.  I used to be a teacher and believe me, by the time you get to Christmas, you are in need of a relaxing spa day!  The kids are excited and ready to take a break and the teachers are in need of time away from the kids also!  Couple this with a small gift card for coffee and I would be in heaven.
