Sea Salt Scrub Recipe
Sea salt scrub is a super easy 2 ingredient DIY that makes the perfect addition to your skincare routine! Make one for yourself and one to gift a friend!
Equipment
- Airtight jars with lids
- Spoon.
- Optional: canning funnel
Ingredients
- ½ cup sea salt
- 2 tablespoons oil jojoba oil, olive oil, or sweet almond oil
- Optional: 5-10 drops essential oil of choice lemon and/or lavender
Instructions
- Combine your sea salt and oil. (Optional: add essential oils)
- Stir together ensuring all of the sea salt is covered in the oil.
- Transfer to an airtight container with a lid. Use a spoon to do so (optional: use a canning funnel to avoid some of the mess!)
- Store in an airtight container in a cool dark place for up to 6 months. Add a label with the product name, ingredients, and date.
Notes
- Use a small spoon to scoop your sea salt scrub out to ensure no water gets into it.
- Before use, shower or bathe with warm water and soap.
- Sea salt scrub is to be used on damp skin! Never exfoliate dry skin as it can cause microtears.
- Choosing an oil: Remember, sea salt is white and some oils have a slight coloration to them! If you use olive oil or jojoba oil, there is a chance your scrub may end up with a yellow tint to it. This is lovely for lemon scented salt scrubs and it is totally natural! If you want to avoid this, use sweet almond oil!
- If using essential oils: use essential oils that are safe for topical use. Use responsibly around children and pets.
- Label the jar with the product name, ingredients, and date. Store for up to 6 months in an airtight container in a cool dark place.
