Making a lavender sugar & salt body scrub! 🪻

Hello! How are you? 💗 Today was a lovely sunny day here where I live in Ireland and I thought it would be nice to try out a kit a friend got me. I made a lavender sugar & salt body scrub and it was so simple and fun to do! I keep telling people it’s bath salt when it’s actually a body scrub 🤣. I think the fact that it’s a body scrub is more interesting as it’ll be more of a test as to whether or not the consistency is good on skin and how it leaves it feeling. Let me tell you how I made it!

The kit came with an aluminium tin, 50g granulated sugar, 50g himalayan rock salt, 50g Epsom salt, 10g pink French clay, 15ml castor oil, 5ml lavender fragrance oil, 5g dried lavender and a pipette!

To begin with I placed sugar, himalayan rock salt, Epsom salt and French clay into a large mixing bowl. The sugar and salt were quite rocky so I crushed it all together which was fun 🤣.

Then, using a pipette I added lavender fragrance oil to what was meant to be almond oil but was actually castor oil (are they the same thing? I don’t know 🤔). I then mixed them together!

Next I poured that over the first mixture and stirred it well before adding the dried lavender and stirring to combine it all. At this point it smelled so good!! 😍

I the spooned it into a tin the kit provided. I thought there was too much of it at first but then it all started to fit.

Then the very last thing to do was to personalise a sticker to go on the tin but there was actually no sticker to be found in the box so I wrote on the tin in sharpie instead which I’m kinda annoyed about now as I won’t be able to reuse it for anything else 😤. Whatever, I’ll rub off the damn sharpie if I have to 🤣.

And there we have it! Some homemade body scrub is good to go 😂. I can’t wait to use it! Maybe I should do a review of it when I do!

It’s been so long since I last did any sort of craft, no wait…I made a vision board the other day!! So to rephrase that, it’s not been that long at all 🤣. What was the last crafty/DIY thing you made? Let me know in the comments below!

I’ll be off now! I’ll see you again next week for another post. I hope you have the best weekend and do something for yourself! 💖 buh-bye now! ✨️xx
