I've made a sugar scrub for my little bro (thanks, Fab 5!) He's 15, and badly needed an exfoliator, but he has sensitive skin. Little sugar, little water, and voila...sugar scrub. Works like a charm.

Interesting.
I make my own natural massage oils, lip balms, and body scrubs.
Pretty much all the stuff you can find in your kitchen.
For a great salt glow:
-Kosher Salt
-Olive Oil (or Grapeseed).
-Mix together & if you'd like add a few drops of your favorite essential oil.
-Stand in shower w/ scrub mixture, apply to DRY skin, then rinse off in the shower.
