You can use either or a mixture of both! Either salt will work well for exfoliation.

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Begin by mixing the salt, coconut oil, and essential oil in a bowl. Mix well.
Store in a glass lidded jar in a cool, dark, dry place.
To use: scoop a few tablespoons of scrub into your hand and gently rub over legs, feet, arms, and hands to reveal soft, smooth skin.

Notes

Notes: Be sure to allow your melted coconut oil to cool slightly before adding it to the salt as to not dissolve any of the solids.

Use one or a mix of essential oils in your scrub. Just make sure you don’t overdo it – essential oils can be strong!

Take care in using essential oils that are safe for skin contact.
