A homemade Sugar Scrub is just about the easiest homemade beauty recipe. It can take as little as two ingredients, or more if you want to add a little personality to yours.

What you'll need:

1 cup oil (Mild cooking oil, OR baby oil, OR glycerine, OR honey. All work just fine.)

1 cup sugar (Regular table sugar, not super-fine. Brown sugar works great, too)

STEP 1: Combine the two ingredients thoroughly.

STEP 2: Add 1-2 drops of essential oil, if you want a smell. Add coloring, if you want color. 

STEP 3: Scoop some sugar scrub into your hand and massage gently into your skin. Leave on for 3 to 4 minutes. Rinse off with warm water. Enjoy your soft skin!



Packaged up & ready to give!



*My first sugar scrub was made with white sugar, peppermint essential oil and red food coloring. Of course, it turned out pink. I made it as gifts at Christmas time. I called it Candy Cane Sugar Scrub. I had purchased some clear plastic containers online with white lids. I placed one jar of the Candy Cane Sugar Scrub and one jar of Candy Cane Bath Salt into a Christmas cellophane bag. I then tied it up with matching ribbon. and a tag. It's a quick & easy gift idea that doesn't break the budget!
