HEY. You lookin' at me? Random pup at the park today. |
Pigeons contemplating life's meaning. |
Gather some oranges, lemons, almond oil, vitamin E oil (though you could probably omit this if you don't want to buy it just for this... on the other hand, it makes a good heel and cuticle softner), sugar, citrus or plain shower gel, tangarine or orange essential oil, and raw almonds.
First, with a fine grater, grate the peel off of an equal number of oranges and lemons. For one recipe, about two of each should be enough. Set the peels in the sun to dry, or on the counter if you do not have access to a sunny yard.Next, measure 1/4 cup of raw almonds. Chop then finely in a coffee grinder or food processor.
Into a glass bowl, measure 1 cup of sugar. Add the 1/4 cup ground almonds, 1 heaping Tablespoon of the dried citrus rinds, 1/4 cup almond oil, 1 teaspoon vitamin E oil, 2 Tablespoons citrus or plain shower gel, and several drops (to your liking as far as strength) citrus-scented oil. Mix well. Boom, done. You can put this into small plastic or metal containers. I save and clean face lotion containers for uses like this. You can also find some pretty schweet containers at the dollar store. Rub this scrub into your wet skin, then rinse for a magical sheen. Be careful to rinse your feet well so you don't slip. Enjoy!
