Quinoa seeds! It's often called a grain, but quinoa is actually a seed that is usually cooked like a grain....#littleknownfacts.
Quinoa is a great pantry staple that can be used in lots of different ways for meals, but today we're grabbing a few handfuls to use these little grains as an easy natural exfoliant.
Just process quinoa in a coffee grinder for 5-10 seconds to get the grains in better-usable form. Grind quinoa to a fine powder and mix your favorite body oil or fruit/veggie puree for a drain-safe body scrub to gently remove dead skin. You can sift if through a fine mesh sieve for a super-fine powder if you're using it on a sensitive face. You can also mix quinoa powder with your favorite hair wash for an invigorating scalp scrub!
