DIY Oatmeal Body Scrub

We were messing around one morning and decided that we really needed to shave our legs. And, ladies, we know that it's this huge challenge to do this. You have to deal with the razor burn, bending over, being a contortionist, and so on and so forth. Well, we can't help you with everything, but the razor burn? We got that covered. 

So with the 2 creative minds of one blondie and a brunette, we came up with this AMAZING concoction. And it freaking works! Like, wow! Our skin stayed soft all day long and it was shiny! And not that greasy shiny, either (you know what I mean). So, without further adieu, Oatmeal Body Scrub:


What you'll need
Old fashioned oats: It doesn't matter what kind, but the kind that comes in the big canister.
Oil: Coconut works best, but you can use canola, olive, or baby oil, too.
Lotion: Your favorite kind. We used some organic stuff of K's. Last time I did it, I used Victoria's Secret.
Sugar: White or brown. I've used just white, just brown, and I've used both. I like the brown best.

What to do
Combine in a bowl
1 c of oats
1 c of sugar
1/2 of oil
And then however much lotion you want

Stir it all up until it gets thick, but not runny. If it's not to your desired thickness, then add water or milk to it.

And you're done! 

Apply it to your legs before you shave, rinse, and then shave. I scrub on each leg about a handful and then rinse it off. There is NO NEED to use shaving cream or whatever the hell you use to shave, this prevents dry skin AND razor burn.  You can use it on your body and it's safe to use on your face, too.

Now, when you're done, make all your friends feel your amazing legs. They will feel like cashmere :)
