So I checked my email to find a sweet encouraging email from my friend offering her service in helping me find full-time work. I was so touched until minutes later when I opened 2 job rejection emails. So I’m feeling kinda bummed….. But I must press on with my December activities. I didn’t slave for hours on my December Event Christmas Advent Calendar for nothing!

I worked on my YourBody Butter business plan and I’m just posting this photo of my homemade Vanilla Lavender Sugar Scrub. This is actually lifting my spirits!

Recipe:

1 cup of brown sugar

3 tablespoons of olive oil

1/2 tablespoon of vinegar

1 1/2 tablespoon of vanilla extract

5-10 drops of lavender essential oil (use more for a stronger scent)

Instructions: Put the brown sugar and olive oil in a mixing bowl and mix with an eating spoon until well mixed add vinegar and vanilla extract mix again. Add the lavender oil last and mix one last time.

This is a medium coarse scrub which can be used everyday before showering for super silky soft skin! Simply put it on your hands or scrub and rub it in circular motions onto  your skin. Rinse it off and voila! Decadent skin.

I hope you enjoy this! Happy December!
