Ingredients for brown sugar scrub:

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil

My container was purchased at Hobby Lobby, but here is a link to a really cute glass container with a wooden spoon that I found on Amazon.

My skin has been SO dry lately, likely because I wash my hands about a million times a day.  This sugar scrub feels wonderful and puts a protective shield on your hands.

My sweet daughter made some for me recently and I had to make more to show all of you!  She told me it was easy and she was certainly correct.

How to make the brown sugar scrub

I heated the coconut oil for about 15 seconds, mixed the above ingredients together, and that is it!  I used my hands to mix it to ensure there were no big clumps.

Easy peasy!

Seriously, this process is so quick and easy. Plan on a grand total of 5 minutes to gather your supplies AND make the scrub.

Make sure you find a container that has a tight seal. When you keep a lid on your home made sugar scrub, it will last for quite some time.  You could also keep some in the shower!
