Homemade Sugar Scrub

I love sugar scrub, it exfoliates your skin, and leaves it so soft, however it's super expensive (Burt's Bees is around $13 a container). I knew it couldn't be too difficult to make, and since I've been experimenting with making other things (bath bombs) I was sure I could figure it out. Well it turns out its super easy and cheap to make and it makes a great gift! So I thought I'd share with you all!


Sugar Scrub Recipe
Equal parts brown and granulated sugar
Little bit of olive oil (just enough to wet the mixture)
(Add scent if you choose)
Mix well!

Super easy right!? You can add essential oils for scent if you'd like, I used both lavender essential oil and some vanilla extract for mine, and it smells great. Also, you can put the scrub in any kind of container you would like but I used an old salsa container (my boyfriend is Mexican so we go through salsa like crazy). I just peeled the labels off, washed it, and spray painted the lid.

I hope everyone is doing well, and I'll see those of you who are in the NE Ohio area in a few days! Love you all!
