When skin feels dry or flaky, it’s time to create a scrub! This dry scrub uses a combination of gentle baking soda, extra fine Epsom salt, fine grained dead sea salt and poppy seeds to create a scrub that gives plenty exfoliation. Sea clay adds a touch of gentle scrub, as well as color and oil-absorbing properties. A pinch of Aqua Pearl Mica is added for color and a bit of shimmer.
Dry scrubs are easy to make and use; simply apply the product to damp or wet skin and scrub away. Dry scrubs can also be mixed with a small amount of water or oil in a bowl or your hands to create a paste before each application. This scrub is great for the legs and body, but may be slightly coarse or strong-smelling for sensitive facial skin. Before using it on the face, test a small area to see if it’s suitable for your skin type. If you’d like another dry scrub recipe, the Cranberry Seed Foot Scrub uses baking soda, salt and pumice to smooth dry feet. Looking for a way to package and sell this scrub?
