“I took hold of that scourge -filled ship and crushed it between my limbs, hurtling it into the second sun, the red one that gave me strength. But I was too late." Terraformer
I love body scrubs! I love the way my skin feels while the course sugar and salt crystals buff and polish my skin. The fragrant oils and spices leave my skin smelling sweet and feeling baby soft. I love to do it after I do the dishes as a little reward. They are a great way to keep skin soft during winter months.
There are many over the counter products that I love and return to. The Mango Body Scrub is my favorite summertime fragrance. The other one I stumbled upon at Costco is LaLicious Sugar Souffle Scrub. It has a sweet vanilla aroma which I LOVE and my skin feels great. Costco is notorious for finding a great product and selling it for a bit then it’s gone forever. So check out the manufacturer or just go to Amazon.com.
Since I love scrubs so much and don’t have $20 to drop on a tub of heaven al the time I have learned to make my own and customize it to my favorite scents. I want to add cinnamon and nutmeg to my next batch.

I'm Shara, a wife, mother, bargain shopper, and I love to critique everything from food to mascara. I'm a sister of Colleen who lives in the desert of Arizona. My favorite time of day is when I pretend my kids are asleep upstairs, and I can catch up on my favorite shows with my handsome husband. Once Upon a Time, Dr. Who, Mythbusters (husband's choice), Big Bang Theory, Sherlock, and Castle. I turned 40 but feel around 30ish, and wonder where the time has gone. I love new clothes, new make-up, new food, and anything new to try out and critique. It's not mean, I promise, I just really like to figure out how to make things better :-)
