Step 1
Step one is to prep your items.

you need a bowl for mixing the scrub

a bowl to soak the tea

have the baby oil and salt ready to mix in

clean glass bottles to place the final product
Step 2
get a kettle and boil some water

now place the green tea(loose or in bags) into a bowl and steep the tea for about 5 minutes.

When the tea has been steeped pour into the other bowl.

-its up to you how much you pour in. If you are making a large batch of salt scrub, pour alot in.
Step 3
now mix in the salts and about a table spoon of baby oil.

once it is all mixed, scape it into the glass bottles.

would this scrub "go bad" since it has the green tea in it?

YES i agree- id tweak this with a natural oil- no mineral(baby) oil- clogs pores- and no good for skin ! i love the idea of green tea scrub.

I would use a different (natural) oil, like grapeseed, jojoba, avocado, sunflower etc. Any oil that does not contain mineral oil (which baby oil does) Mineral oil actually is carcinogenic. Which also makes me question why its still available to sell and especially to rub all over our babies! Pass this info on to anyone whom does not know about it!
