I was watching a neat craft show that had neat holiday gift ideas... One of the ones that stuck out the most to me was making your own Body Scrubs.. They made theirs out of sugar (which is the recipe I found) but you can use salt and coffee as well. We have to remember as we are taking care of our weight and becoming more healthy we need to make our whole bodies healthy. So I wanted to share this idea with each of you! I am going to make them for my bridesmaids and get cute jars to put their scrub in! Hope you guys try it and give your skin an awesome reward for protecting your body soo much! =D

Side note: on the craft show they added food coloring to make it whatever color you might want! So it just adds to the fun and helps it to look even more inviting! This is such a great gift idea!

    Wow, this is a good idea. Since my legs have been able to tan (first time in my life!), they've been dry and peeling like crazy. I read a tip in a magazine that said to use an exfoliating cream or wash or something, but I didn't want to use anything harsh with perfumes or chemicals, because my legs will also break out! This sounds like something I could actually do! And since I've been doing South Beach, I have plenty of olive oil and lemon juice hanging around! Thanks so much for the tip! :flowerforyou:
