Prepare a body scrub in the kitchen

I've never found a scrub that properly does its job so far. They are always too rich in oils or they lack scrubbing particles.
Tired of failing when shopping for scrubs, I thought of making one myself. After trying many combinations I came up with this "recipe".
Mix cornmeal with sea salt and just a pinch of rice. Add coffee grounds and mix well. Now you need the "wet" part of the scrub. Here there are many options: 1. use the scrubbing mix of particles together with your favourite shower gel; 2. add honey until it binds the particles; 3. add oil until it binds the particles; 4.[the best version] add honey and just a drop-or-two of oil.
If you chose to use shower gel in the process, just wash normally as if you had a store-bought scrubbing shower gel. Otherwise, wash first using soap/shower gel/shower cream and then take a walnut-size portion of the scrub and gently rub it on your skin. Leave on for five minutes or ten - so that the honey/oil has enough time to moisten your skin and then wash it off and - voila! your skin will be soft and glowing and happy.

Observations:
Use coffee grounds that are finer than the salt or cornmeal particles. That way you create a spectrum of particle sizes which will ensure that your scrubbing is effective.
The oil can be any vegetable oil but you should aim for olive oil, grapeseed oil, flaxseed oil - if you use the latter, prepare minutes before you use because it won't keep.


Other things you can add:

• salicylic acid/other acids used in cosmetics for a peeling effect
• essential aromatherapy oils - the scrub, if you follow my recipe, would have a nutty flavour
• coloring substances/extracts - to make its color more appealing

You can store it in small dark glass recipients. It makes a great gift.
