Two-Ingredient Easy Coconut Oil Body Scrub Recipe
This two-ingredient easy coconut oil body scrub recipe is made without salt or sugar and is perfect for exfoliating and moisturizing dry skin. Plus it can be scented with your favorite fragrance by adding your choice of essential oil or essential oil blend. I like this natural coconut oil body scrub recipe for sloughing off the last of dry, winter skin to get it ready for spring!
Natural Coconut Oil Body Scrub Recipe
Ingredients:
3.5 oz. refined coconut oil
.5 oz. walnut hull powder (or apricot kernel meal)
36 drops essential oil of choice, optional
Instructions:
I used refined coconut oil for this coconut oil body scrub recipe which has no scent. However, if you’d like a coconut scent you can use unrefined/virgin coconut oil instead. Both have a melt point of about 76°F so if you’re home is warm you’ll want to store this in the fridge in between uses.
To make this coconut oil body scrub recipe you’ll need to begin by weighing out the coconut oil using a digital scale. Place into a microwave safe bowl and heat 10-20 seconds to just barely soften the coconut oil from it’s solidified state. You don’t want it to melt, however, so don’t overheat it!
Now weigh out the walnut hull powder and combine with the coconut oil. Use a fork to mash the walnut hull powder and coconut oil until the walnut hull powder is fully incorporated into the coconut oil.
Using a transfer pipette or dropper, add your choice of essential oil if desired and mix again.
Use a spatula to spoon your finished coconut oil body scrub into a 4 oz. glass jar. I used a 4 oz. Ball jelly jar but you can also use a glass salve jar.
To use simply slather onto wet skin in the shower then rinse off with warm water and pat dry.
