Homemade organic body scrubs are just one of the many ways you can treat
yourself to excellent skin care without spa prices. With these scrubs, not only
will your skin be cleansed and exfoliated, but regular use improves circulation
and pulls toxins from the skin.In the following 7 recipes, it is important to
use organic ingredients so that you are not absorbing other toxins through the
skin. Most ingredients can be found in health food stores and are readily
available online. ALL of these scrubs should be used in the bath or shower and
should be followed by patting your skin dry and applying an organic moisturizer
for overall skin care.Awesome Dry Skin ScrubThis mixture should be made up and
stored in a quarter sized airtight container (Mason Jars are great) for easy use
when you want it. You will just need to take about 3/4 cup and mix with enough
distilled water to make a paste when you are ready to use it in the shower,
gently rubbing over your body.Ingredientstablespoons organic almond meal 4 cups

because the sugar crystals break down too quickly for later use. It is from
these crystals that you get the exfoliating properties. Ingredients 1/2 cup

lemon peel Lemon Fresh Body Scrub Lemon juice is the major attraction in this

do not attempt to store it. The use of cream in this recipe is a great moisture
help, so enjoy! Massage this mixture onto your body and allow to sit for about
15 minutes before you shower. It works best when applied in a steamy bathroom.
