DIY Lemon & Sugar Body Scrub for Spring

Hi, long time no see! Easter is officially over, the chocolate and cakes are gone and if you are anything like me you're going to need some refreshment after all of that 3-day non-stop eating.

Having to squeeze fresh lemon juice at work many times a week has really got me craving something lemony. So today I decided to pamper myself and make my own body scrub, out of -you guessed it- lemon! I looked up the most simple recipe I could find online, and it actually worked really well and made my legs feel dolphin smooth, without even having to shave them! And most importantly it was ridiculously easy to make. And you'll probably have all of the ingredients lying around the house already. This would make a lovely gift for someone too!

For a jarful of scrub, you'll need:
3 cups of sugar
3/4 cup of olive oil
the zest of 2 lemons
the juice of 1 lemon
+ maybe some vanilla for extra scent :)

Combine all of the ingredients and mix them in a bowl, then pour into tub/jar of choice. I decided to make a little tag hanging from the jar but you could definitely go more creative with it.

And even though this smells heavenly and you might get an urge to taste it, it's not worth it. Trust me on this one. :D

Oooh yeah, check out the effort I put into presentation! *sunglasses emoji* Got an excuse to show you my new drinking glasses and water bottle from IKEA. My tableware collection is growing slowly but surely! :)

Anyway, hope you have a lovely and sunny week everyone!
