ALL-PURPOSE NATURAL SCRUB (Could be a great gift idea)
1/2 c. ground oatmeal
1/3 c. ground sunflower seeds
4 tblsp almond meal
1/2 tsp ground peppermint, spearmint or
rosemary leaves
Dash cinnamon powder (optional)
water, milk, or heavy cream
Mix dry ingredients together thoroughly. Use approx. 2-tsp of scrub mixture for the face, more for the body, and enough water (for oily skin), milk (for normal skin), or heavy cream (for dry skin) to form a spreadable paste. Allow to thicken for 1-min. Massage onto face ad throat or body area. Rinse. Use daily or as needed. Follow with a moisturizer. Mix with blender or food processor. Store in zip-seal bag. Makes approx. (4-24) treaments, depending on use. Leaves skin very smooth.
