And did I mention how amazing it smells?? Seriously, nothing smells more like summer to me then lemons. Besides smelling amazing, this sugar scrub gently removes dead skin cells leaving you with silky smooth skin. Perfect for dry rough hands, or even a total body scrub.

The sugar proves a gentle manual exfoliation and acidity of the lemon juice is a natural chemical exfoliant. The vitamin C in the lemon juice can also help to reduce the appearance of age spots over time.

Extra virgin olive oil has been used for generations in the Mediterranean for skin and hair care. Not only is it moisturizing, but it’s also full of antioxidants and rich in vitamins A, D, K and E. All of which contribute to smooth healthy skin.
