Give the gift of sweet smelling, soft hands with this lemon hand scrub that’s so easy to make yourself! 

To make lemon hand scrub combine 180g caster sugar, 2 tablespoons sea salt flakes, 125ml coconut oil (previously melted in the microwave), zest from one lemon and one drop of yellow food colouring. 

Coconut  oil  can  be  replaced  with  olive  oil  if  preferred.  Mix  the  ingredients  together  and store in  an airtight container*. To use, add a teaspoonful of the scrub to moistened hands, work thoroughly into the  skin  and  rinse.  You  will  be  surprised  just  how  soft  and  sweet  smelling  your  hands will  be!  This natural zesty handmade scrub looks so appealing when presented with an old antique teaspoon* to be used as a scoop. 

*Put the call out to family and friends to start collecting old jam jars or jump onto Etsy and purchase 

jars for a more uniformed look. 

*Old spoons can be found at charity and second hand stores and cost next to nothing.
