Peppermint Exfoliating Scrub

“My dear friend Nadine Artemis created this peppermint scrub… Nadine has been my mentor in so many things, essential oil and otherwise… I recommend her products above all other essential oils.”
~ Alanis Morissette

Though it can be used whenever you would like, we especially recommend you use this scrub first thing in the morning as an awakening indulgence, or try it after a long day as a refreshing pick-me-up. It softens the skin through gentle yet gorgeously granular exfoliation, leaving behind an improved texture and lasting moisture. Whenever you use it, Living Libations Peppermint Exfoliating Scrub is sure to leave your skin feeling silky soft and deliciously smooth.

Directions

Great for exfoliating the whole body, especially hands and feet, it can with gentle pressure be used as a facial cleanser. For body, apply to wet or dry skin (excellent used dry on rough feet). Rinse. Great for hot humid weather as it cools as it smoothes and for many it is moisturizing enough in hot climates that an additional lotion would not be needed after a bath or shower.

Size: 120 ml and 30 ml
