I like PP’s suggestion, and you could even add a few drops of lavender or chamomile EO.


That’s old information—microbeads have been banned for a while now.

Get a salux cloth. Better than any body scrub.

Was coming here to say the same thing. Watch it though — shower floor will be super slippery! If you don’t like coconut oil, you can sub olive oil which I think is more moisturizing.


Similarly, I mix turbinado sugar with either bath oil or body wash.

Trader Joe's has a good lavender salt scrub that's cheap.

I agree with making your own though. You can make it as gritty as you want.

This isn’t what you asked but it is super easy to make your own. If you like really gritty try mixing raw sugar with an oil (olive oil works fine) and there you go. I put mine in an plastic container from scrub I had bought at the drugstore.


This is what I do -- mix raw sugar with coconut oil. Be careful in the shower, gets slippery!

I used to use the apricot scrub but then they said walnut shells where terrible for your skin! I've given up on finding a scrub.

I like something super gritty and intense for extreme exfoliation. Thanks!
