Simple Recipe No. 1 - cocoa honey scrub

I love chocolate and the benefits that come along with it for the skin. Here is a simple body scrub recipe you can create at home using ingredients you may have around your house.

Cocoa Honey Scrub

Ingredients:
  • 6 tbsp of cocoa powder
  • 2 cups of honey
  • 2 cups of kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup of grapeseed oil
Instructions:

Combine honey and grapeseed oil in a bowl. Stir in chocolate and salt mixing completely; the consistency will be thick. Transfer the scrub from the bowl into a mason jar or some similar vessel.

Apply to body polish to your skin and gently massage in circular motions. Rinse away the salt with warm water and massage the remaining oil into the skin.

You skin will feel marvelous.

Benefits: It increases circulation and rids the body of toxins. Honey is a natural humectant and holds moisture and also fights against free radicals.

Have fun playing around with the recipe and come up with other ingredients to add.

Enjoy!

Be well, ddse+m
