This indulgent skin-softening treatment uses the ingredients you’ve packed ahead of time (see
Beach Spa Essentials
). To the jar of sea salts, add six drops of sweet orange essential oil and four drops of jasmine essential oil; shake to combine. Then, in a plastic pail, combine the scented salts, a few tablespoons of the oil you used for the
Protective Hair Treatment
, and two handfuls of very wet sand. Use your hands to blend the mixture.
Sitting at the water’s edge, work the scrub onto your arms and legs, paying special attention to rough spots like your elbows, heels, and knees. Rinse your body clean in the waves.
