There's a homemade scrub that is supposed to leave your legs very soft and silky.
Directions
Scrub:
-2 1/2 Cups of Sugar (Yes, just normal sugar)
-1 Cup of oil (I used Olive Oil and of course, I smell a little like Olive Oil. You can also use Canola, Vegetable, Avocado, Coconut or any fragranced body oil you have).
-5 Tablespoons of a citrus juice. Preferably fresh squeezed. (I used Key Lime)
Bath Time:
-Draw you a warm/hot bath.
-Soak for about five minutes.
-Shave one leg.
-Take a palm full of your homemade sugar scrub and scrub that leg and then rinse off.
-Shave your leg again. Yes, again.
-Take a palm full of sugar scrub and scrub your leg again.
-Repeat on your other leg.
-After your bath, dry off and then lotion your legs.
-2 1/2 Cups of Sugar (Yes, just normal sugar)
-1 Cup of oil (I used Olive Oil and of course, I smell a little like Olive Oil. You can also use Canola, Vegetable, Avocado, Coconut or any fragranced body oil you have).

Outcome
This is an amazing scrub and very cheap. It's all ingredients that I already have in my kitchen. I used lemon juice in a bottle instead of fresh squeezed because that's all I had. I do agree with saving again. There is a ton of gunk that comes off of your legs. There was actually so much that I couldn't clean out my razor and threw it away. This is definitely a keeper and I keep it in stock in my bathroom. I also cut the amount in half because I didn't know if I would like it and I didn't want a huge amount of it sitting around. I had a lot of oil left over so I added more sugar to it and lemon juice. This was great since oil is the most expensive ingredient. So go on and make this and feel like you stepped out of a spa!
