My last Friday ingredient talk, had coconut milk. I have expressed my love enough for the wonder ingredient. But what do you do with the left over grated coconut once you squeeze out the milk from it? Well, never waste any organic stuff. So here I am giving you a scrub, that will not only make your skin instantly soft but also motivate you to make your own coconut milk at home! 🙂

Coconut oil, does live in a controversial world. It is known to clog pores and cause acne, but at the same time it is known to nourish and repair your skin in the best way possible. so what do you do when you want the best of both the worlds? Well, MAKE this scrub!

DIY Coconut Body Scrub:

Ingredients Required:

• Coconut waste (after removing coconut milk)
• Olive Oil - 1 tsp
• Lavender essentials oil - 3-5 drops

Mix it all well and massage your hands and legs with it. Scrub it properly for 2 minutes on each body part and let it remain for 10 minutes before taking shower.

You will instantly notice really soft hands and legs, not only soft but there will be healthy glow as well. your skin will be super nourished and you would want to touch it again and again.

Benefits of Coconut Body Scrub:

Coconut is not only moisturizing but also helps to reduce tan. Especially when used as a scrub it not only removes dead skin cells but also works on the dull areas of your skin, making them brighter with regular use.

This scrub is such a winner,since it gives me a great feeling that i’m not wasting the leftover coconut and because I make coconut milk every Saturday or Sunday, this scrub is a part of my routine by default 🙂

Have you used coconut as a scrub before?
