Kanskje du syns dette med at eteriske oljer kan hjelpe på humøret og følelser høres ut som noe skikkelig «mumbojumbo»? Saken er at eteriske oljer er ikke magi. De er essensen av planter, nøye destillert og utvunnet for å bevare alle de gode egenskapene. Eteriske oljer er plantenes immunsystem og forsvarsverk.

Matcha tea powder has tons of benefits - but the main reason I've used it in my scrub is because it contains a lot of antioxidants and is a natural detoxifier. I use coconut oil and white sugar in my scrub, but if you prefer brown sugar that's perfect too. I ...
