Scrub: Shea Butter Salt Scrub

I have made salt scrubs before.  I have also made sugar scrubs before. But this is the first time I ever heard of using Shea butter in a salt scrub before. This Shea Butter Salt Scrub recipe from Wholesale Supplies Plus  is a gentle exfoliant that will help remove dead skin cells while it refreshes and brightens your skin plus it will leave it renewed and moisturized.  This easy recipe yields (10) 4 oz jars.

Blueberry & Plum Salt Scrub

Have your ever heard of Virgin Plum Kernal Oil?  I never had until I saw this recipe from The Natural Beauty Workshop called Blueberry and Plum Salt Scrub.
It can be sweet and has a fruity aroma. Would you believe that you can add this to your recipes because it eliminates the need to add fragrances or essential oils to scent your product.  It is also great for the skin.

How to Make a Citrus Salt Scrub

Looking for a invigorating salt scrub that will exfoliate your skin, leaving it smooth and glowing. This cheery, citrus, salt scrub by Rose McDougle, eHow Member will invigorate you and  will work as a natural mood elevator. Now that is something I could really use right now.  But if you make this recipe, you should use caution when using a citrus essential oil. Citrus essential oils can be photosensitive which means it could cause damage to the skin if it is exposed to sunlight.  So if you use this in the morning make sure you cover self well with long sleeves, etc.  And make sure you do not use not to use it on your face.  Another alternative would be to use this at night prior to you going to bed.
