Everyone can use a little pampering, especially when it is simple to do. This Himalayan salt scrub recipe is just the thing. Salt scrubs are nourishing to skin, help to eliminate toxins, and can even fight cellulite.

Himalayan salt is considered the purest salt and the most beautiful salt in the world. It has many helpful benefits due to its unique mineral composition. It works fabulous as an exfoliating scrub and helps to soften skin.

Add in some Lavender and Eucalyptus essential oil and...it is truly a refreshing and uplifting aromatherapy experience.

The act of scrubbing the skin helps to stimulate circulation and improve the overall tone and health of skin. Have you ever performed dry brushing? Himalayan salt scrub can help to exfoliate the skin in a similar fashion.

Pink Himalayan Salt Body Scrub Ingredients

Salt scrubs include a carrier oil to help the salt glide over the skin and to moisturize the body. This recipe uses fractionated coconut oil and argan oil. Fractionated coconut oil is also a great moisturizer, helping to hydrate and protect the skin. I also like vitamin E oil for extra skin benefits.

Himalayan salt is an excellent exfoliant that helps to remove dead skin cells, revealing softer, smoother skin.

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender is one of the most popular and beneficial essential oils. It is prized for its calming and soothing properties. Frequently used in beauty and personal care products, as well as aromatherapy and spa creations.

Lavender reduces anxious feelings, eases tension, and promotes sleep. It is also helpful at soothing skin irritations.

Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Eucalyptus essential oil has a wonderfully stimulating aroma that opens airways and eases congestion. It boosts the immune system and reduces bacterial, fungal, and viral activity.

Emotionally, eucalyptus encourages mental clarity and reduces negative thinking. It can also help soothe exhaustion and increase vitality during challenging times.

Salt scrubs are a great way to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin. Himalayan salt scrub benefits include removing impurities from the skin, improving circulation, and reducing inflammation.

They are beneficial for all skin types, and should be used mainly on the the body as they may be too harsh for delicate facial tissue. Brown sugar make a better facial scrub for exfoliation at home use.

Additionally, Himalayan salt scrubs are a great way to reduce stress and relax the mind and body.

Relaxation and Stress Relief

A essential oil salt body scrub can provide a soothing and therapeutic experience that promotes relaxation. The gentle massaging action combined with the calming scent of the scrub helps alleviate stress, tension or anxiety.

Taking time out for self care through indulging in this treatment allows one to escape from daily demands while rejuvenating both mind and body simultaneously.

DIY Himalayan Salt Scrub Recipe with Essential Oils

This Homemade Himalayan Salt Scrub Recipe is very easy to make and only requires natural ingredients. For best results, use once or twice a week.

Ingredients Needed:

• 1 cup Himalayan Salt (fine grain)
• 1 tablespoon dried lavender (optional)
• 3 tablespoons Fractionated Coconut Oil
• 1 tablespoon Argan Oil
• 1/4 teaspoon Vitamin E Oil
• 20 drops Eucalyptus Essential Oil (Eucalyptus radiata)
• 15 drops Lavender Essential Oil (Lavandula angustifolia)
• 8 oz glass mason jar

How to Make Himalayan Salt Scrub with Essential Oils

Step 1: Place Himalayan salt into mixing bowl.

Step 2: If using dried lavender in salt scrub, the pieces may clog the drain, that is why I like to grind the lavender with a coffee grinder. It doesn't look as pretty but still adds a great aroma to the salt scrub. One thing I noticed is that a few tiny pieces may stick to the skin when the scrub is washed off. This step is optional.

Step 3: Add dried lavender to Himalayan salt and mix together. Skip this step if you are making a simple pink salt scrub without dried lavender.

Step 4: Mix fractionated coconut oil, argan oil, essential oils, and vitamin E oil together in a separate bowl. If you don't have argan oil use 4 tablespoons of fractionated coocnut oil instead. The vitamin E oil can be omitted if you do not have any on hand, or you can use vitamin E oil capsules by squeezing the oil out.

Step 5: Add oil blend into salt mixture.

Step 6: Stir all ingredients together.

Step 7: Transfer into a storage container. I used an 8 oz glass mason jar and all but a small scoop fit. (I used the extra as a quick hand and foot scrub for all my hard work!)

How to Use Himalayan Salt for Body Scrub

Himalayan salt scrubs are a great way to improve your skin health. Grab a scoop of salt scrub and gentle rub over body to exfoliate, then rinse off. Since this product is made with oil, be careful when using it in the shower as it can make the floor slippery.

You can use plastic jars if you are concerned about glass in the bath or shower. Best if used within 1-2 months.
