Shabby Foot Scrub

A nourishing, feel-good scrub for dry feet.

Got rough, dry feet? SpaGirls to the rescue! This little ditty uses ground walnuts to remove your dead skin cells and replenish your skin moisture. And as a bonus, the caster and olive oil in will enhance your nail flexibility, leaving them less prone to chipping and breaking.

Here's what you do:

Coarsely grind walnuts in blender or coffee grinder. Add olive oil, castor oil and honey. Vigorously rub hands and feet with the paste. Rinse with warm water.

You'll need:

1/2 cup shelled walnuts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon castor oil
1 teaspoon honey

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.
