The first cucumbers in our garden are just about ready to be picked so we started looking for ways to use them and came across this recipe for a cucumber body scrub. The cucumber has the power to cleanse impurities, cool the skin, relax the soul and reduce discomforts of the skin.
Mix together into a thick paste 1 medium cucumber, peeled and finely grated and 1 cup of organic buttermilk. Stir in 1/2 cup of sea salt, which will act as an exfoliant. Relax in a steamy bath for 5 minutes, allowing the heat to open your pores. Apply the cucumber scrub, avoiding cuts, scratches, or freshly shaved skin. Rinse thoroughly.
We're off to try this out!!
WOW! I want to know how that turns out.
ReplyDeleteI heard you put on a great show last month so I had to come check out your blog.
Hope you can make it to the Hot Blogust Night blog party in Snohomish on August 8th.
Oh boy, I see that I am going to have to try this. Another use for all of the cucumbers in our garden.
