Du behöver: 1 dl/100 g kokosolja (fast), 1 dl strösocker, saften från 1 grapefrukt, 1 msk grapefruktjuice, 10 droppar pepparmyntsolja, 25 droppar grapefruktolja, röd karamellfärg om man vill förstärka den rosa färgen.
Time for a new DIY that I prepared back in Sweden. This is a home made scrub that works for both your face and your body and the best thing about it is that it's all natural (and that you know you've made it yourself). It's perfect for spring and contains both peppermint oil and grapefruit oil. Grapefruit oil is good for a lot of things, it gives energy, helps with headeches, makes us happier and helps with stress so this is a perfect start of your day and it gives your face a real moisture boots! The scrub suits everyone with dry or combination skin.
You'll need: 100g coconut oil (firm), 1 dl sugar, zest from 1 grapefruit, 1 tablespoon grapefruit juice, 10 drops peppermint oil, 25 drops grapefruit oil, red food coloring if you want to enhance the pink color.
1. Put the coconut oil and the sugar in a bowl and whisk with an electric beater on low speed until combined.
2. Tillsätt grapefruktsaften, juicen, pepparmyntsolja, grapefruktolja och eventuellt karamellfärg till bunken och vispa igen på låg hastighet tills blandningen har en jämn färg.
2. Add the zest from one grapefruit, the juice, the peppermint oil, the grapefruit oil and the food coloring to the bowl and whisk on low speed again until the color looks even.
3. Klart! Förvara i kylskåp.
3. Done! Store in refrigerator.
