You’ll get some scratchy texture from this exfoliating salt scrub, which should be followed by a warm rinse for a lingering, silky texture on the skin. You’ll find the oils for this recipe in health food stores. The treatment works best at the end of a hot bath. For a less expensive version, use either almond or jojoba oil (instead of both).
