This is a soap recipe, not a body scrub, although the combo is so nice, I am sure you could turn it into anything you wanted!  I use a tallow/olive based recipe, but I am sure any hard bar would be fine.  The additives are as follows:

0.5 oz per lb of oils tea tree EO
0.5 oz per lb of oils peppermint EO
1/2 Tbs per lb of oils powdered sage, (known skin tonic, turns your soap a really nice shade of light green)
Poppy seeds to desired scrubby effect...I love a heavy scrubby so I do about a Tbs per lb of oil.

These all go in at what ever trace you want to pour your soap.  The EO's don't really give you any sort of trouble.  I have also OHP this one and it turns out fine, just have to mix it a bit more.  Have fun soaping!
