Self-Care Sunday: DIY Sugar Scrub

With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season what better way to restore your sanity than to practice self-care. I want to share with you a quick and easy way to make a luscious Sugar Scrub to help you pamper yourself.

You will be surprised at how easy this DIY project is and you may already have the necessary ingredients around the house. Let’s get started!

You will need:

  • An air tight container {I’m using a 3 oz. jar}

  • 1/3 Cup of Sugar {Regular granulated sugar}

  • 1/4 Cup of Oil {Vegetable, Olive, Coconut, Grapeseed are some examples}

  • Essential Oil for Fragrance {I’m using Grapefruit oil}

Step 1: Add your Sugar into the container

Step 2: Add your oil in with the sugar

Step 3: Add several drops of the essential oil to your mixture for the level of fragrance you want

Step 4: Stir and Seal!

That’s it! I told you it would be easy. This small jar will live on my kitchen sink for hand scrubbing. Grapefruit and lemon are great scents for removing any unwanted food odors from your hands. This size is also perfect for gifting. It would be such a thoughtful gift to support self-care along with the soap we made several weeks ago. If you’re wanting to make a larger amount just double or triple your ingredients.

I hope you enjoy this self-care project as much as I do!

Until next time,
