1. Banana Sugar Body Scrub
When the bananas are starting to brown, grab those beauties and put them to use. This one skips the oil and relies purely on the benefit of banana and the gently abrasive sugar.
- 1 ripe banana
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract or your favorite essential oil (optional)
2. Rosemary Lemon Salt Scrub
For the fellow (or the lady, or the sporty) mixing savory herbs with lemon and salt is a super treat for the skin. (If you don't use it all while cooking, that is.) Rosemary is especially invigorating, but this Lemon and Thyme Salt Scrub from Food + Words is really quite splendid.
3. Easy Peasy Sugar Scrub
This super simple (as the name implies) from Glue & Glitter couldn't be easier or peasier: Easy Peasy Sugar Scrub.
4. Tomato Sugar Scrub
Another one from Glue & Glitter (where everyone must have sparkling hands and smooth skin), this one is amazing! It employs a slice of tomato as a buffer, along with all the nutrients as well. Here's the how-to: Tomato Facial Scrub.
5. Vanilla Coconut Brown Sugar Scrub
Coconut oil is subtly fragrant and slightly miraculous. This one is a super moisturizer, and can practically double as dessert.
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
6. Sugary Minty Lip Scrub
For soft lips, this quick treatment is the ultimate treatment to make you a smooth kisser. Blend a bit jojoba or olive oil with caster sugar (also known as superfine sugar; you can also make your own by putting regular granulated sugar in the food processor for a minute) and a touch of peppermint or vanilla extract. Place some of the paste on your lips, massage and lick off.
7. Lavender Salt Scrub
Lavender and salt, together at last. If this vibrant salt scrub from Queenie and the Dew doesn't cure you of dry skin and a blue mood, nothing will: Lavender Salt Scrub.
8. Citrus Salt or Sugar Scrub
This will wake you up, great for the morning shower or after sports.
- 1/2 cup sea salt
- 1/2 cup oil of your choice (jojoba, almond, olive, whatever)
- 1 teaspoon citrus zest (lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit or a mix)
