Rosemary and Lavender Scrub

If you like those expensive foot and hand scrubs but don't like the price make them at home.

2 cups salt (you can use just about any type of fine grain salt)
1/4 cup olive oil (you do not have to use extra virgin or substitute in grapeseed oil)
3 tbsp lavender
3 tbsp rosemary

Mix all dry ingredients together. Add oil a little at a time and mix well

You can use a food processor or grinder to chop the herbs up smaller. Add a bit of coloring for visual presentation. Put in a lidded jar and store in cool dry area
