Lemon and Thyme Salt Scrub

This time we tried a salt scrub. At some point we saw this one somewhere but we couldn’t find it anywhere to reference in this post 😦 Our previous successful experiments have been Vanilla Sugar Scrub and a Natural Hair and Scalp Treatment. We found that the textures differed between the sugar and the salt. The sugar felt more like wet sandy mud whilst this salt scrub was drier and rougher. Now this doesn’t mean the salt scrub wasn’t any good – it was great on the more tougher parts of the body like feet, elbows and legs.

All that you need...

All that you need…

1 cup rock salt (not the big chunky pieces or the really fine stuff – something in between)
1/2 cup almond oil
Zest of one lemon
6 sprigs thyme leaves stripped

– pour salt in a bowl
– add lemon zest and bruised thyme leaves
– pour in oil and mix

The almond oil we used was purchased from Health and Happiness. Check out their website (it’s on their Facebook page) as well they have so much education on natural products – there’s also heaps of DIYs! Please do not disturb us – we are now very busy 😉 just kidding – but seriously please check them out!

Another body scrub that we adore! We are totally loving making our own beauty products. Have you got many recipes you can recommend to us? Please do tell us about them.

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

Natural Hair and Scalp Treatment

Natural Hair Treatment

Natural Hair Treatment

We were inspired by this pin on Pinterest. It’s said to increase scalp circulation, loosens up dry and itchy scalp. It also removes residue from your everyday shampoo and conditioner.

All you need...

All you need…

4 x tablespoons coconut oil
2 x tablespoons lemon juice
1 x tablespoon grapefruit juice

– mix mix mix
– apply to dry hair. Scalp only and start at the top of your head
– massage in with your fingertips and leave in for 20 minutes. We left it for an hour
– rinse out and shampoo and condition as per normal

We tried it and it definitely loosened up the dry scalp that historically never went away – 2 weeks later it hasn’t come back. It also left our hair feeling so clean! We felt it was a little heavy on our fair hair and it took a few washes to not have oily feeling hair. That’s just a minor setback and we highly recommend you try it – especially if you have lovely thick hair!

Give it a go and don’t forget to tell us how it goes for you 🙂

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!
