How to make Whipped Vanilla Coconut Body Scrub

It’s that time of year again when fighting rough, dry skin becomes a full time chore. Make your job easier with just 3 simple ingredients that you can not only pronounce, but are actually safe for consumption (though I wouldn’t recommend it)! It takes only a few minutes to ‘whip’ up this whipped body scrub!

Ingredients for whipped vanilla coconut body scrub

1 cup coconut oil
2/3 cup Epsom salt
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract (you could use vanilla essential oil instead, but this is what I had on hand and it worked great.)

Whipped Vanilla Coconut Body Scrub

Directions for Whipped Vanilla Coconut Body Scrub

You want to start with slightly chilled coconut oil, this helps the body scrub gain the whipped texture. You can mix all ingredients together by hand and call it good, but I chose to mix with my kitchen aid for about 6 minutes to make it a little more fluffy. It’s really that easy!

I keep some in a little dish next to my bathroom sink, and store the rest in a sealed jar. Makes a great gift for your school teacher, friends and family, or for yourself!
