Chocolate Salt Scrub

This winter weather has really done a number on my skin this year. The DIY Gingerbread Sugar Scrub & Gingerbread Lotion that I made for Christmas, worked wonders for my skin, and also made cute little gifts.
With Valentine’s Day coming up, I decided to make another scrub, this time in a delicious chocolate scent It’s super easy to make, and I even included FREE Printable Labels if you want to hand them out as gifts.
This scrub would make a cute teacher gift for the kids to give for Valentines Day, for friends, yourself, or really anyone!
Although I made this for Valentine’s Day, this could really be made any time of the year. I mean who doesn’t like chocolate, right???
Chocolate actually helps repair your skin and protect from damaging free radicals. The Epsom salt in this DIY scrub also helps to gently exfoliate, and the magnesium helps give you a relaxed feeling which can improve sleep and concentration. The coconut and jojoba oil is moisturizing and will leave your skin feeling super soft!
**To use the salt scrub, simply apply it to damp skin in the shower or bath in a circular motion. Focus on problem areas such as knees and elbows and then rinse off. You can follow with body wash in shower or tub and then lotion after.
Did I mention, it also smells good enough to eat??!! Though, please don’t do that. 😉
