How To: Homemade Lavender Body Scrub

November 21, 2013 By Talya Tate Boerner

lavender peppermint body scrub

Today I’m blogging about my favorite homemade body scrub at Inspiration Cafe. Quick and easy, this homemade lavender and peppermint body scrub is made with ingredients from my kitchen and garden and makes a great gift. It will keep for weeks without refrigerating.

…not that it will last that long…

    I never would have thought about putting peppermint and lavender together, but I bet it smells divine!

    Gonna make some of this for small Christmas gifts. If I make it the weekend before, how long should it last?
