    I can’t wait to make this scrub, Heidi! Ever since we’ve been at the cabin my normally oily skin has been super dry and sensitive. I never understood “winter skin” until this trip. This scrub will definitely help get my skin back on track. Thanks so much, sweet friend! Hugs, CoCo

    1. Heidi says:
