Brown Sugar Body Scrub




Now for my Natural Brown Sugar Body Scrub

I came up with this recipe for my natural Brown Sugar Body Scrub in March.  This stuff is good enough to eat, but don't.  This body scrub just melts into your skin.  Use it at the end of your bath, and your skin will be exfoliated and silky soft.  It leaves your skin so hydrated that you will not even need to use a moisturizer after your bath.



Brown Sugar Body Scrub

1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup raw sugar
8 TB coconut oil ( melted )
2 tsp cinammon ground
2 tsp cloves ground
2 tsp nutmeg ground
1/4 tsp vanilla or 20 drops vanilla essential oil

Mix brown sugar, raw sugar, cinammon, cloves, and nutmeg in a bowl.  In another bowl melt the coconut oil and then mix into the sugar mixture, also add the vanilla.  Once mixed put the scrub into a 1 pint mason jar.

To use:  Get a small amount in your fingers and rub your hands together, and then rub on your body.  Rub into skin until melted away.  The raw sugar will not be totally gone, but the brown sugar will be gone.  Rinse with water and you are good to go

This Body Scrub is great for gifts or yourself.  I would love to hear what you think of this recipe, and what can be improved upon.  Let me know what you think.

Enjoy!!!

  4. I made this scrub this morning to use for my bath and it was wonderful! I normally have dry skin, but my legs feel so moisturized. It feels fantastic! I'm going to do more to my feet as the summer hasn't been so kind to them. This ought to do them wonders. And I love the smell of the cinnamon and cloves. I'll have to put in more nutmeg next time though (I grind it fresh so the amount is always different than store-bought ground nutmeg, and it's kinda hard to measure).

    Thank you for the awesome recipe!

  5. Do the spices serve a purpose beyond making the scrub smell nice?

    1. No the spices just make it smell good. You don't have to use them.
      Thanks for stopping by.
