Brown Sugar Scrub




So about two years ago I was introduced to sugar scrub. Once I found out what it was and how to use it - I loved it and had to have more. So I did what I always do: read the basic recipes, did a few trial and errors and altered it to make it work well for eczema and sensitive skin. Voila! You have my recipe below! This makes a sugar cookie smell :) but you can always alter and make it work for you.

The Mix:
2 tsp almond oil
2 tsp hazelnut oil
2 tbs coconut oil
1/3 white sugar
2/3 brown sugar
1/4 tsp honey
10 drops vitamin E oil
7 drops vanilla oil 

Makes 8 oz of sugar scrub.
Note: I like mine with all brown sugar sometimes too!

How to mix:
Step 1: Melt the coconut oil.
Step 2: mix the oils together 
Step 3: put sugar mix in the container you want
Step 4: pour oils over the sugar

From here you can either let gravity make it happen or mix away. Voila you have sugar scrub ;)

How to use: 
If you are in a colder climate - warm before use or the coconut oil will be hard. I throw mine in the bottom of the tub during a shower and use at the end - it warms it up perfect. I like plastic lidded containers for this reason.
Then mix up if needed and rub on then rinse off and pat dry.

Enjoy
