Homemade Brown Sugar Scrub

This is one of my favorite scrubs to make.  I mainly use it on my face, but occasionally use it all over my body.  It is so great for exfoliation without dryness afterwards.  When I first made this it looked kind of thin in consistency, but when I used it.... WOW!  It gave my skin a great "scrub".  I use it first, and then follow with a vitamin E or tea tree based soap.  Then I use my homemade toner.  I will share that recipe with you later.
Now, let's make it!
Mix together:
2 tablespoons grape seed oil
1 tablespoon avocado oil
1/2 teaspoon vitamin E oil
2 teaspoons lemon juice
15 drops tea tree essential oil
15 drops ylang ylang essential oil
15 drops clary sage essential oil
15 drops lime essential oil
***you can substitute the grape seed and avocado oil for 3 tablespoons of any oil you like***
Now I add enough brown sugar until it is the consistency of a caramel sauce.  Today I used about 5-6 tablespoons of brown sugar.
Here is the finished product.  Like I said, it may not LOOK like a scrub, but just WAIT!  You will be surprised!!! ENJOY!!!!
