- sea salt

Depending on how thick or thin you like your scrubs, you can always adjust the amount of ingredients to your liking.
My grandma always said salt was “healing”. She recommended it for a variety of ailments. I use olive oil sometimes on skin irritations. This scrub is a nice exfoliant to slough off dead skin and make it feel smooth and healthy.
