Homemade Sugar Scrub
This homemade sugar scrub makes fun, inexpensive gifts for family and friends.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup oil, if using coconut oil, melt it first
- 2 Tablespoons glycerin
- 2 drops food coloring, optional
- 15 drops essential oils
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a bowl. Stir or smash together with a spatula.

Notes
To make layered sugar scrubs, pack your first color into the container and smooth the top.
Then add your second color, packing and smoothing as you go. Continue until the container is filled.
Four layers are plenty for a 4 oz. container. A double batch of this recipe filled 5 mason jars (4 oz.) almost perfectly. (One recipe of white, one recipe of red.)
To use the scrub: remove a small amount of sugar scrub and massage onto wet skin. Rinse off.
