Coconut Honey Body Scrub

Coconut Honey Body Scrub
by Carolyn Root

½ cup honey
1 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons virgin coconut oil

Mix all of the above ingredients right before you’re ready to shower. Apply in circular motions after washing body. Rinse. I found coconut oil in the baking section of my store around the other oils (I've even heard you can find it in the pharmacy section). I had to really look though, and I’ve never seen coconut oil before I needed it! If 2 tablespoons seems like too much, you can leave it at one, but this oil is creamier than traditional oil, so it feels less "oily".

This left my skin feeling really smooth and soft. The coconut oil was very moisturizing!
