There MUST be someone here who has an easy-peasy salt&coffee body scrub recipe…?
Probably, but it isn’t me
Oh yes, this is so easy to make; I always have an extra jar at hand.
I don’t follow any recipe in particular. I just grind coffee beans and mix with rape seed oil, sugar or salt, and a teaspoon vanilla powder (optional). The scent is really yummy!
Thanks Limbic!
Splendid!
Yeah, there’s a few online recipes. I re-used ground coffee by drying it in the oven, added salt, sugar, vanilla extract and coconut oil. I decided to add some vetiver EO and unfortunately added too much. The first half of the jar was lovely but I’m finding the vetiver a bit too strong in the bottom.
Ah, that sounds good to me though.
Perfect, thanks!
Pleasure AnnieA! I don’t remember the exact proportions but if you google a bit you should find the recipe. I forgot to actually save it!
Robin, I used it daily for a week so maybe I just need a vetiver break! Some days I don’t feel like any strong scents in the shower…
Same with shower scents!
I think maybe Koyel has made something like this. She’d be a good person to ask.
