Why this polish is gentle
Finely ground oats make the base softer than a harsh salt scrub, calendula tea keeps the texture light, and jojoba oil adds slip so you do not need heavy pressure.
Recipe ingredients
- 1 tablespoon finely ground oat flour
- 1 teaspoon cooled calendula tea
- 1 teaspoon jojoba oil
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon fine sugar for elbows or knees only
How to prepare it
- Mix oat flour and cooled calendula tea into a soft paste.
- Stir in jojoba oil until glossy.
- Add fine sugar only if the area is not sensitive.
- Use immediately and discard leftovers.
How to use it
- Use on damp body skin, not the face.
- Massage with very light pressure for 20–30 seconds.
- Rinse well and moisturize while skin is still slightly damp.
- Avoid freshly shaved, sunburned, irritated or broken skin.
Best areas
This is best for elbows, knees, feet edges or rough-feeling patches. Keep it away from delicate neck, chest and intimate areas.
