How to Make a Homemade Bath Scrub

There's nothing like how soft, smooth and fresh your skin feels after a scrub.

Instead of shelling out big bucks on chemical-laden commercial scrubs however, why not try the recipe for a homemade scrub below.

You will need:

• A jar or container
• Rice
• Turmeric
• Olive oil
• Essential oil, such as lavender

Depending on the size of the container, measure out a suitable amount of rice and grind it in a food processor until it takes on a soft, powdery consistency.

Remove the mixture from the food processor and place in a mixing bowl. Add in the turmeric and stir in gently until well mixed.

Pour the mixture into the jar. Store the ingredients dry until use.

Before use, measure out a small amount of the mixture, add olive oil and a drop of your favourite essential oil and mix.

Apply the resulting mixture to your skin and scrub away!

For extra-smooth baby-soft skin, apply olive oil directly onto your skin after your shower and scrub.
