Frankincense & Grapefruit Scented Himalayan Salt Scrub
Frankincense & Grapefruit Scented Himalayan Salt Scrub -
This salt scrub base is definitely one of my favorite DIY bath and body recipes because it is not sticky, it’s exfoliating, and it leaves the skin moisturized to the point of not even needing lotion after a shower. As with many of the bath and body recipes you see me use, this can be used as a base for you to update as you wish. I love the combination of Frankincense and Grapefruit - but you can use whatever you’d like as your scents.

This moisturizing scrub helps to alleviate dry skin during the cold winter months and the grapefruit and frankincense essential oils provide an invigorating scent. This recipe fills approximately 10 4 oz jars and fits perfectly into a stocking or is a thoughtful teacher gift.
INGREDIENTS:
Air tight jars for storage
3 cups Salt - Himalayan, Epsom or Kosher are some options
1/3-1/2 cup Carrier oil such as Sweet Almond Oil
15 Drops Grapefruit Essential
Oil 25 drops Frankincense Essential Oil
DIRECTIONS: Combine salts and carrier oil in large bowl until the salt has a wet consistency. Mix in essential oils and spoon the mixture into air tight jars. The salts will be less abrasive after sitting for a day. Use in the shower or as a hand scrub as an exfoliating and moisturizing treat.
Whether you’re creating these in batches at a DIY night or just making it on your own, this recipe makes another great grab-and-go option! These labels can be found in my Fall & Holiday Label Bundle.
