Did you ever wonder how to make homemade shaving cream?
Do you use our significant other’s shaving cream to shave your legs? Maybe you’re really
lazy or broke, so you just use whatever shampoo or soap you can find in the tub. Are
your legs happy with you? How about your armpits? Want to make them smile? You can
try this homemade, coconut oil shaving cream recipe I found at Gluten Free Navy Wife
and adapted for Hearty Naturals Coconut Oil.
To make the diy shaving cream scrub you will need:
2 1/2 C. of Sugar
1 C. Coconut Oil
5 Tbs. Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice. (You can use it from a container too.)
Combine all ingredients and mix well. Now the fun begins! Enjoy a warm or hot soak
in the tub with your scrub sitting next to you, so you can lavish in the tropical scent.
Scoop a generous amount of diy coconut sugar scrub and scrub one leg to prepare
and exfoliate your skin. Then, shave your leg and repeat with the other leg. The oil
will need to be rinsed off your razor repeatedly. Here’s a little secret, after you pat dry,
use any leftover scrub as a moisturizing lotion on your legs.
This works really well. Your legs will feel super soft and silky. The scrub removes
dead skin and lotion build up from the legs. It also works well for those rough patches
on your elbows or as a lip conditioner. You might also like our Coconut Oil Sugar Scrub

Doesn’t the coconut oil make the tub very slippery and also clog the drain? I would be worried about that.
