Morning Lemon Peppermint Salt Scrub

I have found that my ginger body scrub is perfect to use in the evening to help soothe my muscles after a long day or rigorous exercise. For a morning ritual, I wanted something more zesty to help perk up my senses. To do so, I came up with this fresh, invigorating morning lemon peppermint salt scrub:

Ingredients:
1 whole lemon (with rind)
1/4 C. olive oil
1 C. sea salt
10-20 drops peppermint oil

Directions:
1. In a food processor or blender, combine lemon and olive oil. Mix until smooth, about 3 mins.
2. Pour salt into a bowl. Add peppermint oil. Whisk thoroughly.
3. Spoon lemon mixture into salt. Use a spatula to fold together until well combined.
4. Place salt scrub in a glass jar.

To use in the shower, scoop fingers into salt scrub. Massage deeply into skin. Rinse. After your shower, pat yourself dry with a towel and apply peppermint moisturizer or your cream of choice.

Good morning!
