Coconut Oil & Salt {or sugar} Scrub

I am addicted to this very simple Coconut Oil & Salt Scrub and am an avid believer in its 'magic' to keep my skin exfoliated and soft. I live in flip flops 9 months out of the year and, living in South Florida, my skin can {and does} get very dry and ashy. This scrub is my magic wand to keeping my 'dryness' at bay.

Ingredients:
2 C Sea Salt {or 2 C sugar}
1 Cup Organic Coconut Oil
Few drops of coconut scented essential oil {optional}
A jar with a tight fitting lid

Pour the coconut oil into jar, add the salt {the ratio is one parts oil to two parts salt, as long as you keep that ratio you can add as much as your jar will hold}. Add in desired scented essential oil {optional} and mix.

Will last up to several months. Try to prevent water from getting into the jar to keep the desired consistency.

I use this 2-3 times a week in the shower on my entire body {but not face}.
