Flippin' Sweet Pom Scrub

Pomegranate body scrub for a sweeter demeanor.

Pomegranates are the new superhero of anti-aging, containing five times the antioxidants found in green tea. The edible arils pack the tiny seeds and juice that hold the key to super sweet soft skin.

Here's what you do:

Mix sugar, oil, orange peel and honey until it creates a paste or consistency of your preference. Carefully blend in pomegranate arils.

You'll need:

1/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoon of sweet almond or jojoba oil
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
Dash of honey
Handful of pomegranate arils (seeds)

Do-It-Yourself Tips:

Try out your concoctions on an inconspicuous place like your forearm before you go slathering it all your body and have fun!
Use recipes with perishable food items such as eggs and veggies immediately or store in an airtight container up to one week in the frig.
Vodka, witch hazel, vinegar and lemon juice are natural preservatives and help extend the life of a DIY mixture.
Sugar and salt scrubs generally keep for a couple months as long as the container has a tight seal.
Store aromatherapy massage oils in a dark, well-sealed glass container for up to 6 months.
For gifts, consider separating the dry ingredients from the liquid and giving the recipient directions on how to mix them in one-use increments.
