Homemade Spa treatments for dummies???

Options
Hi

I am loving some of the ideas on here and am hoping to make some homemade beauty products for Christmas this year.

Just wondering if anyone has any easy to follow recipes for scrubs/facemasks etc that will last a while. Also ideas for jars etc to put them in.

Sorry if this has been asked loads. I did look on google but many results showing up were for things needing lots of expenisve sounding ingredients and I'm sure theres alternatives out there :).

Thanks

    There's a really simple 'recipe' for a scrub on this thread. Also a snowball soap.

    Quick lip balm seems easy enough from this google

    The mini pots of jams/marmalades you find in restaurants would make a good container. You can buy them in Morrisons individually if you don't have a stash in. You might need to print a label off and stick it to the top if it's already printed on.

    When googling add the words 'cheap' or 'easy'. I find I have to do this when looking up cookery recipes, otherwise they have you buying 19 ingrediants you don't have in in order to proceed!

    You can google lip scrubs too and most of the scrubs can be used as foot scrubs too ;)

    Wonderful :)

    Thank you so much!

    The sugar mixed with lovely smelling liquid soap looks like something even I could manage ;) Haha
