Make Your Own Perfect Margarita Salt Scrub
I have shared a number of homemade salt and sugar scrubs but recently I have been really feeling the citrus aromas in all of my skin and body care and routine. I have a few favorites like my Lavender Vanilla Salt Scrub and my Cucumber Mint Sugar Scrub. These are my must haves year round but by simply adding some citrus like orange or lime I feel rejuvenated and ready to enjoy summer!

Not only do homemade scrubs make you feel like you spent the afternoon at the spa but these simple scrubs save you time and money. Taking time for yourself is so important and by creating scrubs that help you relax, feel energized or just take you away from the every day stress you will make sure you take that time!
2. Zest the lime and add the fresh orange zest to the bowl of salt. Combine zest and salt by carefully mixing.
3. Melt coconut oil in the microwave for 15 seconds.
4. Pour coconut oil into the salt mixture and carefully combine.
5. Add 7 drops of lime essential oil into the salt scrub mixture and combine well.
6. Carefully squeeze the juice from two limes into the mixture and combine well.

Tips: For storage, this scrub can be kept in an airtight container for 2 weeks. You can also add a bit of tequila if you would like, by doing this, reduce the amount of lime juice used.
