DIY Body Scrub- Caffeinated Brown Sugar Scrub

So the how to:
Combine the following:
~2/3 cup brown sugar (I prefer this to granulated sugar because the grains are smaller and less likely to scratch your skin)
~2/3 c oatmeal (not the instant stuff)
~1/4 cup coffee grounds (I used vanilla flavoured ones- cuz that's all had in my kitchen ;-) )
~ tea leaves from about 4 tea bags
~1/3 cup oil (my fave is jojoba, but you can use any type of vegetable oil)
Mix them all together- and you have your very own homemade exfoliator! These quantities are not meant to act as hard and fast rules, you can alter them in any way that suits you depending on how grainy, liquid-y etc you want your scrub to be. This one can be kept for some time in a container, as none of the components is prone to spoiling quickly.
You may choose to add some lemon juice for added exfoliating power, or you can use milk. Be warned though, cut down the amount you make when using milk- because it will go bad!
Hope you gals enjoy!!!
