brown sugar-cinnamon body scrub

combine 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon real orange juice, 2 tablespoons cinnamon, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon orange extract. Add more cinnamon to thicken if needed, add more oil to thin if needed. Stir well. It should be a deep mahogany color, and have the consistency of chocolate syrup. Use a generous amount all over your skin in the shower and massage your skin to exfoliate then rinse off. You'll smell like freshly baked cookies, and have soft, exfoliated skin. I recommend using this after shaving so that your skin is as smooth as possible, as this makes it easier to scrub off any dead, dry skin. After using body scrub, I like rubbing vitamin E oil on my skin to make it soft and moisturized.
