Prep Time5 minutes
Total Time5 minutes
Author: Lexi

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar or salt
  • ½ cup oil
  • Add-ins use 6-12 drops of essential oils if using, or about 2 teaspoons other add-ins

Instructions

  • In a medium combine all ingredients and mix with a spoon until fully combined.
  • Place gently (do not pack it down) in a jar with a tight fitting lid and use weekly or every few days on body.

Notes

You can tweak your body scrub depending on how you you want it to feel and smell.
Don't bring glassware into the shower. A reader wrote to us and shared a story of bring a glass jar in the shower and accidentally dropping it and cutting herself. So we wanted to spell this out that for safety reasons if you are using a glass jar keep it out of the shower. Or use a plastic container.
