Sea Salt Body Polish Project
This Sea Salt Body Polish is the recipe you’ve been looking for. Velvet French gray sea salt has an extremely fine texture that gently removes dead skin. Squalane oil and seaweed extract nourish, while polysorbate 80 ensures skin doesn't feel greasy after. After the Rain Fragrance Oil adds fresh notes of misty fog, violet blossom, and lily of the valley.
We added a touch of emulsifying wax to this recipe. It creates a slightly firmer texture and keeps the oil and salt mixed together. The scrub has a spreadable and soft consistency that we can't get enough of!
