Corn Salt Scrub Recipe #58486
I think this is great!! It took me a while to get it right but I am proud of the result. So far as I tested the scrub it does not separate like most scrubs do, making it easier to use. For the oil you can use the lighter oils like almond, jojoba or grapeseed, olive oil can also be used and you will probably have that in your kitchen cupboard. The essential oil is optional and so is the vitamin E. The vitamin E does work as an extra preservative, the salt does that too, and is also very good for your skin, but it does make it more expensive. Great gift!
