Hey guys, today I'm going to show you how to make a lavender relaxation sugar body scrub
0:25
It only takes three ingredients and it takes about five minutes to prepare
0:31
So first up I have some raw organic coconut oil, which is our main moisturizing ingredient
0:38
And then I have some lavender flowers, which I've just ground down into a powder
0:45
So they're not big pieces, but they still really help to exfoliate the skin
0:50
And last but not least, some raw cane sugar. You can see it has a bit of a golden color
0:55
It's less refined than traditional white sugar. And this is what's going to help to exfoliate the skin, buff away dead skin cells, and keep
1:04
you feeling very, very smooth while at the same time, from the coconut oil, very, very moisturized
1:10
And then, from the lavender, you're going to get those amazing aromatherapy benefits
1:17
for relaxation. All you want to do is combine the three ingredients into one bowl
1:22
So to the sugar, I'm going to be adding the coconut oil
1:29
You do not have to melt this coconut oil first. It's totally fine in its raw form
1:36
And the lavender flowers. Just want to mention that this smells amazing and I'm already feeling super relaxed
1:48
Okay, so I'm just with my fork, mashing it and stirring it gently
1:54
And the goal is to combine the coconut oil into the sugar mixture evenly so it becomes
2:04
almost like the texture of wet sand. This is entirely edible if you want it to be, which is always a good sign that it's
2:14
all natural. There we go. This is a great alternative to conventional beauty products that may have harsh chemicals
2:25
in them. Anything with exfoliants that's like a cheaper product may have microbeads in it, which are
2:32
little plastic beads, which are just so unnecessary and so bad for the environment
2:38
And we're just using pure organic cane sugar instead, which does the trick without the
2:43
environmental damage. Now, to use it, you just put it on your skin and massage it in
2:53
And you'll see here, my skin's starting to get really glossy. That's from the coconut oil
3:00
It's starting to moisturize. I can feel a gentle exfoliation from the sugar and from the lavender flowers
3:08
And it just feels so good. And all I have to do now is rinse off my skin with some warm water, pat it dry, and follow
3:16
up with your favorite oil or moisturizer, and you will be in heaven
