A Little Walking & A Little Talking

1/29/2015

0 Comments

 
I've been trying to be good and take walks daily and today I decided to go to the mall and walk around. I find it is so much more enjoyable to people watch and walk at the same time.

Well, normally I just walk but one of the workers in a kiosk in the center of the mall grabbed my attention so I went over. I'm all about free stuff and yes, she was giving something away. As it turns out it was a sample of a hair conditioner but that wasn't what we started talking about. She really wanted me to try their Dead Sea Salt scrub on my hands..so I did. Yes, it did make my hands feel nice and smooth and no I was not going to pay $69.50 for a 10 oz. jar of salt that just had a bit of grapeseed oil and jojoba oil in it. I was gracious and did give her a gift of an essential oil sample and talked a little bit about that. You have to get the word out where ever you can. 

I did finish my walk and made it home and then thought....I have Sea Salt and could probably make that same blend of oils and salt and add my own essential oil. Here is my finished product. See under the photo for my recipe.

In case you were wondering, this is exactly the consistency of the one they were selling....not too oily and grainy is what you are going for. I think this would be wonderful using himalayan pink salt. I just used regular fine sea salt that you can get at the grocery store but the pink would have more benefits and be prettier. The himalayan would also be more beneficial in a bath using as bath salts but I didn't think my husband would be too happy if I used his salt for my scrub.

1/2 cup fine sea salt
1/2 t Grapeseed oil (or whatever liquid oil you have)
1/4 t Argon oil (optional)
7 drops essential oil (I used Lavender)

Blend together until you get a grainy consistency. To use, apply a teaspoon full to hands and rub together being sure to get back of hands and palms as well as in between fingers. Rinse off with warm water. Moisturize with a good quality lotion afterwards.

There you have it...my $1 version of a $69.50 dollar product.

    In 2012, our life drastically changed for the better when I started using more natural products and creating my own cleaning and personal care products and eliminating toxins from our life. More recently we have had some other life challenges with the addition of our two grand-daughters who are 15 mo old. Join us in the journey to a cleaner, healthier lifestyle and help us embrace life's ups and downs with toddlers.
