Homemade bodyscrub with coconut oil and orange zest

This body scrub with coconut oil and orange zest is one of my favorites. It smells sensational and leaves the skin very soft. Coconut oil is not only hydrating but also full of vitamins E and K and it is very rich in iron. Bring many benefits for the skin: moisturizes and softens the skin, removes the dry skin feeling, it is an excellent ingredient for a scrub, it is gentle with sores or calluses (heal bruises), it is antibacterial (soothes irritations) and gives the skin a special glow. A scrub made of natural products eliminates unsightly skin, moistens and removes dead dry skin cells, leaving it soft and smooth. Exfoliation not only improves the skin tone, but may relieve symptoms of certain skin disorders.

I make this scrub for myself quite often, but this time I made it for a friend. I used the following ingredients:

  • 200 g fine granulated sugar
  • 60 g organic coconut oil
  • zest of one orange
  • 15 drops of orange essential oil

How to do it:

Mix the sugar with the coconut oil, melted for 20 minutes in the microwave, then add the orange zest, which will color the scrub wonderfully, and finally add 15 drops of orange essential oil. Not only the scrub looks great but smells so good!

Apply the scrub on your wet skin and massage circular. Rinse with water. You no longer have to use it as a shower gel. The above amounts are for a 250 ml jar. The scrub is ready as you say velvet skin! Pack it carefully and offer it with plenty of love! 🙂
