Body and Foot Scrub – Wild Waves
The inspiration and the sand for this scrub came from our early morning winter walks at Ocean Beach in Strahan, it is such a beautiful and energising wild place.
The scrub is suitable for normal, oily and blemish prone skin. I use this scrub on my body and feet, and while it is certainly not suitable for your face or chest it is particularly helpful in removing dead skin cells from your legs and feet or those parts where greater dryness exists like the elbows, knees and heels. This scrub is definitely not for the faint hearted, it is fantastic for people who want a serious invigorating scrub. Please remember salt scrubs may irritate sensitive or broken skin.
Handmade using organic fine Himalayan pink salt, Australian bath salts, Epsom salts, rice bran oil, fine Strahan sand, olive green Australian clay, fine Strahan sand, natural Tasmanian kelp, organic cosmetic seaweed powder, French ochre clay, peppermint leaves, with rosemary and peppermint pure essential oils.
Salts are rich in vitamins, minerals, trace elements and amino acids of the sea. Great for healthy looking skin, healing imperfections and increased circulation. Epsom salts are used in this scrub to exfoliate, firm and de-stress your skin. Sand is excellent for eliminating impurities from the skin and has a wonderful skin softening effect. It may help improve blood circulation and can help combat cellulite on some areas of the body. Rice Bran oil is full of antioxidants, vitamins B and E, hydrates the skin, protects from UV rays, helps resist wrinkling and penetrates easily. Olive green Australian clay is best for detoxification and acne prone and oily skin. Acts as an aid for repairing scars. Seaweed powder helps improve skin tone & blotchy skin colour – re-mineralising & nourishing. The anti-inflammatory effect of Sea Kelp is a natural exfoliating agent, removing dead skin cells, which can block pores. Sea Kelp can also help protect the skin from environmental damage. French ochre clay is naturally rich in minerals that help with circulatory exchanges within the skin giving it a radiant complexion. Rosemary leaves and the essential oil help to heal wounds, promote cell regeneration and has antiseptic properties. Has a crisp, lemony scent. Peppermint essential oil is an antiseptic, stimulating astringent, deodorizing and cooling. Energises and awakens the mind. May also contain some sun protection properties.
Stir the pot first and then simply apply to damp skin in soft circular motions to exfoliate always moving towards your heart. Do not let any water get into the mix. Rinse away with warm water and be careful as surfaces may be slippery.
Use within 12 months.
