Something I love to do weekly is exfoliate my entire body. Usually, I use a spicy salt scrub which I make myself, using ginger powder, high quality epsom salts, sea salt, essential oils & more secret spices! ;)
Body exfoliant for free
Nothing is better than something for nothing though! SO I thought I’d let you in on a crazy little secret. My 100% free, no-mix – no-fuss exfoliant which leaves the skin feeling soft & supple, & is available to anyone!
Beach body scrub
Only be prepared to get a few looks! Haha… I strip off (to bikini’s) usually use some coconut oil to nourish & protect while in the sun, & THEN OHHH YESS… SCRUB my skin all over with gorgeous white Aussie sand before plunging into the sea. If the sand is hot feels soo nice to roll around on it coating the entire body for a while then plunge again. If there is seaweed I use it aswell, to massage the skin, plunge AGAIN lol, then towel dry & moisturize. MMMM. SOO GOOD.
If you don’t live close to the beach
PS. If you don’t live near a beach, maybe when it rains you can do something else super-crazy… I also like to slide in the mud… LOL I know! But it’s AMAZING for your skin! Once it was pouring rain & my friend & I (with our delighted children) went sliding down the lawn in our knickers (it was actually all muddy – I have red soil where I live, soo nice). After showering in my outdoor shower, I was astonished at how gorgeous & soft it made my skin look.
