WebBasic Salt Scrub 1 cup (300 g) salt ½ cup (118 ml) oil 5 - 15 drops essential oils (optional) Citrus Salt Scrub ½ cup (118 g) fine sea …

Estimated Reading Time: 6 mins1. Select your salt. In a salt scrub, the salt is used as an exfoliant that scrubs away dead skin and leaves your skin soft and smooth. There are a number of different salt types you can use, including table salt, sea salt, Himalayan salt, Dead Sea salt, kosher salt, or Epsom salt. Sea salt and Epsom salt are some of the most common salts used in these scrubs. The type of salt you use isn't as important as the grind. For a salt scrub, choose finely ground salt over coarse salt, because fine salt is better at exfoliating. You can also combine different types of salts together in one scrub. You can also substitute white sugar, brown sugar, coffee, oatmeal, or ground nut shells for all or part of the salt called for in the recipe.
2. Choose a carrier oil. The carrier oil is the base that will keep the salt scrub together, but it will also moisturize your skin. You can use specialty oils or oil you have on hand in the pantry. To prevent slips in the shower, choose a thin- or medium-consistency oil that will be washed away easily: Grape seed and jojoba oils are thin and have very faint aromas Sweet almond oil has a medium consistency and a mild aroma Vegetable, olive, and canola oils are medium and have little aroma Coconut oil is medium and has a very strong, sweet aroma Peanut, walnut, and hazelnut oils are thin to medium and have nutty aromas Castor oil is thick and difficult to wash off
3. Customize the scrub with fragrances. A salt scrub doesn’t need anything other than salt and an oil, but you can add fragrances and essential oils if you want to change the aroma of your scrub. You can pick fragrances that you like, that suit different seasons, or that are holiday-specific. Be sure they are suitable for use on the skin. Citrus oils like lemon, orange, and grapefruit are fresh, energizing, and great for spring- and summer-themed scrubs. Flower oils like ylang-ylang, rose, and geranium are sweet and summery. Peppermint and cinnamon are invigorating oils that are also great for Christmas and winter scrubs. Lavender, vanilla, chamomile, and frankincense can be very calming fragrances.
4. Combine your ingredients. Find a glass jar with an airtight lid to store your scrub. Pour the salt into the container, followed by the carrier oil. Finally, add some drops of essential oils or fragrances until you achieve an aroma and strength you like. Stir the mixture well before using.
