During the summer, I always get dry skin… probably because of the amount of time I spend under the sun. While I love having a tan, dry skin is something I cannot stand. It is itchy and let’s be honest, it is embarrassing when someone brushes against you and they feel your alligator skin. Yikes! I am glad I found this Himalayan Pink Salt Scrub and my favorite essential oil for the skin – Frankincense.

What’s in the Himalayan Pink Salt Scrub?
Himalayan Pink Salt
Himalayan pink salt helps detoxify the body and balances pH levels. It also helps exfoliate your skin!
Almond Oil
Almond Oil acts as a carrier oil and dilutes your essential oils. It is best to practice dilution because the essential oil is potent and may be harmful when used pure.
Frankincense Essential Oil
Frankincense Essential Oil is excellent at fighting germs and is deodorizing as well.
Things to Remember When Using This Recipe
This recipe is safe to use with children 2+.
Consult your doctor before using this oil if you have a bleeding disorder. Frankincense is an emmenagogue that has blood thinning effects, which may increase their risk of irregular bleeding.
Never ingest any essential oil, even if it’s generally regarded as safe. For more information on why we don’t ingest essential oils, check out this blog post.
