Homemade Body Scrub Recipe

  • Prep Time: 5 Minuten
  • Servings: one big jar

Ingredients

lemon-sea salt body scrub
(makes one big jar, about 450g)

250g fine sea salt
200g coarse sea salt
juice of 1 lemon
zest of 1 lemon
3-4 tbsp olive oil

honey-ginger body scrub
(makes one big jar, about 450g)
350g brown raw sugar
80ml raw honey
80ml melted coconut oil
30g grated ginger

Instructions

lemon-sea salt body scrub
In a big bowl, mix fine and coarse sea salt, lemon juice and zest, as well as olive oil and stir well. It’s helpful to start with less olive oil at first and adding more gradually, depending on the consistency you want.
Store in an air-sealed container and keep away from direct sunlight. The scrub will last for a few months (or even longer).

honey-ginger body scrub
Peel the ginger and grate it. In a bowl mix brown sugar, raw honey, coconut oil and ginger. It works the best if you use your hands. Store in an air-sealed container and keep away from direct sunlight. The scrub will last for a few months (or even longer).

Welcome to my kitchen, my colourful world of nourishing foods. Here I choose to live healthy, eating whole, plant-based foods; a happy mix of vegetables, legumes, fruits, whole grains, nuts and seeds.

I am Pauline, a food lover and photographer from Berlin.

My recipes are simple, vegetarian dishes with plant-based and natural ingredients only. Perfect for everyday life. You do not have to be a skilled cook to have a balanced and healthy diet – I am not! An open mind and willingness to try out something new everyday shall be enough. It’s an infinite journey, and I am happy about everyone who decides to come along.
