diy LEMON SUGAR body scrub

FEEL LIKE YOUR SKIN NEEDS SOME SUPER-SOFTENING?...
Here's a quick diy for a lemon-sugar body scrub 
that'll have your skin feeling baby soft and smelling delish!

what you need:
1 1/2 cup raw sugar
3/4 cup olive oil
2 lemons

 what-to-do:
1. Pour the raw sugar in a bowl and add the olive oil a bit at a time, folding in the sugar. Do not mix it too much. You want the sugar and oil to combine completely, but not break down. Stop adding oil when it becomes a thick paste.

2. Grate the zest of both lemons into the mixture. Then squeeze the juice of each, folding it in a bit at a time.

3. Transfer the scrub to a lidded container and it's ready for your next shower! The lemon will leave a fresh, energising scent on your skin while the sugar mildly exfoliates so always remember
to follow up with a moisturiser!

I must try this out. I used the Body Shop lemon scrub last summer and loved it. A home made version would be even better.
