Exfoliating your skin is essential.  It helps to rejuvenate your body and keeps your skin looking fresh! On a typical day, I use my loofah in the shower, but a few times a week I’ll put it aside and opt for a body scrub instead.

I don’t mind buying scrubs from the store, but they can get so expensive – especially when the kids decide that they also need to rub themselves down with an entire $30 container of scrub!  (That was literally money going down the drain!!)  So I smartened up and started making my own scrubs.  Good news – the ingredients in a basic body scrub can be found in most kitchens!

Here’s a few of my favorite (and easy to make!) body scrubs from around the web:

Sugar + Coconut Oil + Essential Oils
