Grapefruit Ginger Body Scrub

 Ginger has a long-standing reputation as a healer. For centuries, it’s been a go-to home remedy for everything from an upset stomach to cold and flu symptoms.  But what if we told you it had a whole slew of beauty benefits as well?  Yes, ginger can heal inflammation, but it can also give you healthier hair and better skin, and maybe even tackle cellulite.

 An exfoliating homemade body scrub recipe featuring grapefruit and ginger essential oils.

Ingredients

36 drops Aura Cacia Grapefruit Essential Oil
4 1/2 tablespoons Aura Cacia Jojoba Skin Care Oil
4-ounce Aura Cacia Amber Wide Mouth Jar with Writable Label
6 drops Aura Cacia Ginger Essential Oil
6 drops Aura Cacia Rose Otto (in jojoba oil)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons rolled oats

Directions

1. In mixing bowl, combine jojoba and sugar.
2. Place rolled oats in blender or food processor and pulse until a medium coarse powder, then add to jojoba and sugar.
3. Add grapefruit, rose and ginger essential oils to bowl and stir ingredients until well blended, transfer to wide mouth jar.
