Here is a great, easy to make scrub to help exfoliate, and leave a great soft feel to your skin.

Step 2: Mint, Sugar, and Stir

Step 2.A- Chop or muddle your mint to as small as you are able ( this releases the mint smell ) Add this to the zest and juice

Step 2.B.- pour sugar into our little mixture. Sounds easy enough

Step 2.C.- Stir Stir Stir

Side note- It should have a medium viscosity, adding a bit more sugar can thicken it up if needed, and juice to thin it. :)

Step 3: Time for the Oil

Step 3.A.- Add a dollop or two of coconut oil. (coconut oil should be at room temp for this so it is easier to stir in)

step 3.B- stir stir stir (remember, medium viscosity)

Step 4: Pour It Back

Step 4- pour it back into your container and enjoy. this scrub will leave your skin glowing and vibrant with a great smell for your every morning shower. :)
