not for baking, not cooking, but making my own sugar scrub!

I want to give handmade gifts for some friends, hence this:

Matcha's benefits:  At first I was debating whether I want to use matcha or green tea- then I read this article, so I decided to go with Matcha!

Manuka Honey: read here for benefits

Jojoba Oil: Known as the best carrier oil to treat acne (here)

Lavender USDA Certified Organic Essential Oils: " Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) has a fresh, sweet, floral, herbaceous aroma that is soothing and refreshing. Because it is the most versatile of all essential oils, no home should be without it. Lavender is an adaptogen, and therefore can assist the body when adapting to stress or imbalances. It is a great aid for relaxing and winding down before bedtime, yet has balancing properties that can also boost stamina and energy. It's great for beauty. It may be used to soothe and cleanse common cuts, bruises, and skin irritations."- Poofy Organics
