DIY Lemon Lime Epsom Salt Scrub

Store-bought body scrubs can be pricey and often full of synthetic additives. But making your own is simple, affordable, and a whole lot more natural. This easy DIY scrub doesn't cost much to make uses ingredients you probably already have at home.

My favourite way to use it? Just before a warm evening bath. Massage the scrub all over, then soak in the tub while the magnesium-rich salts and nourishing oils work their magic. You’ll step out with silky skin and a deeply relaxed body - perfect before bed.

Not only does it gently exfoliate, but it also helps your body absorb magnesium which is great for soothing tired muscles and reducing inflammation.

Lemon Lime Epsom Salt Scrub

Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup coarsely ground Epsom Salts, the grated zest of half a lemon, the juice of half a lemon, and 3 drops of Lime Essential Oil.

Massage the scrub gently over your body (avoiding your face), then soak in a warm bath to rinse off and allow the Epsom salts to work their relaxing magic.

The mixture may settle between uses, so give it a good stir each time. For a longer shelf life, store the scrub in the fridge.
