1 C. Oatmeal
1/4 C. Lavender
1/4 C. Almonds
1/4 C. Roses

You can also use chamomile or lemongrass instead of lavender
Grind up each ingredient in a blender:
Grind the oats and herbs as finely as possible – you are looking for a powder consistency.
Grind the almonds but leave a bit of coarseness to them
Don’t overheat the herbs by leaving the blender on too long.
Use a teaspoon at a time – wet and make paste to scrub.
Caution: Don’t get water into your powdered scrub or the whole batch will mold.
