Oat and Walnut Body Scrub Project
Walnut shells are wonderful for body scrubs - they're fine enough to feel gentle, but large enough to be effective. For this scrub, they're added to Soothing Oat Lotion Base. It's made with oat oil, oat extract, and aloe liquid. Not only is it great for dry skin, but it's an easy way to create an emulsified scrub.
The recipe is scented with Golden Oats Fragrance Oil for a sweet and soft scent. To make sure the fragrance is completely mixed in, gently heat the lotion base and thoroughly whisk it in. You can also use a stick blender.
