<\/a><\/p>\nI was inspired by this one on Tip Junkie<\/a>, which includes soap in the scrub. I’m not a big fan of liquid soap, so I created this version. The soap though, is a great idea to clean and scrub at the same time! I still include oil though for moisturizing purposes since soap can be so drying, especially when your poor hands have been digging in the dirt.<\/p>\n My favorite part of the other tutorial is that it’s not really about perfect measuring- there’s no leftover bits that won’t fit in your jar because the recipe is measured in your jar! So I used that same technique.<\/p>\n Ingredients:<\/b> Lavender essential oil<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I found these cute jars at Goodwill. You could use a regular ol’ wide mouth half pint jar or even those squished wide mouth half pints. Or recycle a container you already have. There are lots of options here.<\/p>\n Whichever type you choose, fill your jar about 2\/3 full with sugar.<\/p>\n Grate the soap with your cheese grater. I like to use the really tiny grater, just cuz’ I think it’s cute.<\/p>\n In a small bowl, mix the sugar, the grated soap and a small handful of lavender.<\/p>\n Add enough almond oil to make the mixture slightly liquid-y and blended together well. It doesn’t take much, maybe a 1\/4 of a cup. Add 10 drops of lavender essential oil.<\/p>\n Mix well.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
