My skin is doing its late-winter dullness thing (I get dry skin, it gets itchy and crummy, and is uncomfortable). Once upon a time I had a jar of sugar scrub for taking care of that but used it all up.
Of course, you can make your own. And it's a lot simpler than I thought it might be- equal parts brown and white sugar, "enough" olive oil, and then scent. (The person at Petite Elefant used vanilla, but I wonder if I could find some lavender oil locally and use that; I like lavender better than vanilla. Or - both together. (One of my favorite skin lotions is a lavender-vanilla scent).
I may have to run out once I finish this grading and see if the "health food" store here that I always maligned as "probably just a place selling supplements" also has essential oils...

oh how I wish I could use lavender oil. I've recently discovered I'm either sensitive or allergic to it because the last couple of times I was exposed to it, I broke out in hives. :( That makes me sad because I love lavender.
