- Ā¼ cup measuring cup
- Tablespoon measuring spoon

How to Use This Homemade Rose Scrub
A good scrub is a simple and refreshing way to pamper your skin. It cleans and smoothens by getting rid of flakes and dead skin.
You can use this scrub all over your body, not just your face. When using, apply to damp skin, massaging in circular motions to remove dead skin cells. Use your fingertips or an exfoliating pad for the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
You can use this scrub a couple of times a week as it is very gentle, but if you start to feel some irritating, it’s best to discontinue use temporarily.
The rose petals exfoliate gently, Himalayan salt purifies, and coconut oil moisturizes, leaving your skin soft and refreshed.
It is also great to use during the summer when your feet might need extra care from wearing sandals.
Lastly, this scrub makes an excellent gift for that special someone. You can gift it for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, or any other special occasion.
