Geranium & Tomato Hand and Body Scrub
A gloriously green scrub for garden hands, sandal feet and everything in between.
So here’s the thing. I made a scrub. Not just any scrub - a hand and body scrub that smells like your dream greenhouse (think: a tomato vine warming up in the sun next to a proper English rose geranium, not one of those powdery old-lady versions). It’s leafy and floral and fresh and a bit addictive, honestly.
I made it because I needed it. After a long day in the garden, my hands were looking… let’s just say not ready for polite company. And my feet? Absolutely not sandal-ready. So I whipped this up — full of natural exfoliants (ground almond shell, if you’re wondering), aloe vera, witch hazel, and other lovely skin-soothing bits — and voilà: the dirt was gone, the dry patches disappeared, and my skin looked properly radiant
I’ve been using it on everything — hands, legs, elbows, and the aforementioned feet. It’s not scratchy, not greasy, just gently buffing and softening and a tiny bit magical.
The scent?
Imagine crushing tomato leaves between your fingers while brushing past a geranium in bloom. It’s fresh and green and slightly sharp — in a good way. Like a summer garden in full swing. Unexpected but completely right.
How to use (aka how I use it):
Scoop out a good dollop. Massage into damp skin — especially those dry spots — and rinse off. Use 2–3 times a week, or whenever your limbs are looking a bit dull and unloved. Follow with something nourishing if you’re feeling fancy.
PS: It’s limited for now while I see what you all think. If you love it — and I hope you do — let me know. I might just make it a permanent thing.
