Ingredients

• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Coconut oil (melted)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 0.5 cup of melted coconut oil.

Step 2

Mix the ingredients thoroughly until the sugar is evenly coated with the coconut oil, creating a paste-like texture.

Step 3

Add 10 drops of your preferred essential oil for fragrance (e.g., lavender for relaxation, citrus for freshness, or peppermint for invigoration). Stir well to distribute the scent evenly.

Step 4

If desired, add 2 drops of food coloring to the mixture for a decorative touch. Be sure to mix thoroughly until the color is even.

Step 5

Transfer the completed sugar scrub into an airtight container, such as a glass jar with a lid, for storage.

To use, scoop a small amount of the sugar scrub into your hands and gently massage it onto damp skin in circular motions. Rinse off with warm water and pat dry.
