DIY Sugar Scrub
4 Easy Ingredients
Here is a really simple recipe to make your DIY Sugar Scrub.
Grab a bowl and add 1/2 cup of Granulated Sugar.
Add 1/2 cup of Brown Sugar to the bowl.
Add 1/3 Cup of Coconut Oil to the bowl.
Add 5-10 Drops of Your Favorite Essential Oil to the bowl.
Such as:
Vanilla
Wintergreen
Honeysuckle
Grapefruit
Orange
Lemon
Lavender
Lime
Mandarin
Nutmug
Mix all the ingredients up with a spoon. Then pack your sugar scrub into a jar and put a lid on it and then sit it next to your sink. You can use this to wash your hands the next time your at the sink.
Just scoop out a small amount and rub it all over your hands. Rub the mixture over your skin to remove dry or dead skin. Then rinse the sugar scrub off and dry your hands. Your hands will feel nice and soft after this scrub. The coconut oil will hydrate your hands and leave behind smooth skin.
Sugar granules are good for exfoliating your skin and getting the dead skin cells off. You can also use this in the shower but please take extra caution that you do not slip in the shower. The coconut oil can make your shower floor slippery.
You could actually leave out the essential oil and just use the coconut oil with the brown sugar only. This smells really good and has the same effect. I actually love the smell of the brown sugar. However, it just won't leave behind a scent when you rinse it off. The essential oil is what leaves behind a smell so if you omit that then you won't have a lingering smell left on your hands. The coconut oil will stay on your hands and make them soft.
