Lavender Scrub

So, each of those ingredients brings something unique. Sugar, for example, is a natural exfoliant—so it sloughs off dead skin. Ground lavender and lavender buds have a soothing, calming aroma, plus they can have mild antiseptic properties. Olive oil and castor oil are both super hydrating—they nourish and moisturize the skin. And lavender essential oil, of course, brings that stress-relief and relaxation vibe, plus it can calm irritation. So, together, they make a really lovely, and soothing scrub.
