my very favorite is a simple scrub made of olive oil and sugar or sea salt. simply combine to make a paste and scrub your body smooth! works great to get the caked on dirt off of gardening hands...and knees...and muddy feet
if you like, and a few drops of essential oil to fragrance it...but be careful because not all essential oils are skin safe. Lavender oil is, as is rosemary. lemon and orange oils can make your skin more sun-sensitive, peppermint and cinnamon oils can be irritating to sensitive skin. i usually just mix up a single batch at a time so i don't really know how long it keeps.
