For Mother's Day, I am making my Mom and Mother in law a homemade sugar scrub as part of their gifts. They are easy to make, economical, and much healthier than store bought scrubs. Here is the recipe:
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup Turbinado sugar
- 1/2 cup grape seed oil
- 2-4 Tbsp. honey
- 12 drops essential oils of choice (I used lemon)
Directions
Mix ingredients and place in a clean, air tight, glass container.
To use: Rub desired amount in gentle, circular motions on areas you wish to exfoliate, avoiding the face. Rinse and repeat if necessary.
You can easily customize this recipe by using different sugars, oils, and essential oils. You can also use salt in place of the sugar.
