A little while ago I read an article that the microbeads that are in a lot of face scrubs these days are already causing problems in the ocean and the lakes that our drain water flows into.
Millions of those things are getting into the water and settling at the bottom, and sometimes being eaten by the water life there.
So I thought now was the time to try making some of my own at home.
I'm also trying to move towards a more natural household so this is just an extra push.
I found a lot of interesting recipes and how to's on the internet but this is the one I chose.
Ingredients:
Coconut Oil, Half a Cup, I got this 300g Jar for $6 at the supermarket.
Sugar, 2 Tablespoons, I'm using brown because that's what was in the pantry
1T lemon juice.
Add half a cup of coconut oil to a bowl
(this smells fantastic!)
Stir in your 2 Tablespoons of Sugar
Then stir in 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice.
I cut the lemon in half and squeezed it into the bowl
I don't know what the exact measurement of that would be.
And you are done!
It's really that easy.
I found a little container and spooned it inside and put this in the bathroom for my next shower.
Yes, I licked the mixing bowl after. This really does taste fantastic.
As you are using it, it smells wonderful.
