Have you ever felt a bit sad when trashing your dead roses? Feel guilty no more! Dry the rose petals instead and use them to make a skin-softening body scrub. I used Epson salts instead of sugar because I prefer a more coarse scrub to use an exfoliant.

I’m not one to take on craft projects so do-it-yourself tasks need to be five steps or less or I might just pitch the notion. This scrub is so easy to make that I’ll definitely make it again.

Grapefruit Rose Petal Body Scrub is easy peasy and requires only a few ingredients.

One dozen roses, petals removed and dried
1 c. Epson salts
10 drops grapefruit essential oil

Make it today and use it tonight on those summer flip-flop feet or as an all-over body scrub to sluff away dry skin. See the recipe below!

Never feel bad for throwing out faded roses ever again. This Grapefruit Rose Petal Body Scrub is easy to make and leaves your skin soft in no time.
