Lemon Sugar Scrub Homemade Recipe
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar; divide
1/4 cup organic coconut oil (almond oil will also work)
Put sugar in a large bowl. Set aside. Measure out 1/4 cup of coconut oil and place it in a microwave safe bowl. Heat coconut oil in the microwave for about 30 seconds, or until the oil is melted. Pour oil over sugar and mix to combine.
Using a zester or small grater, zest the rind of 1 lemon. Then, cut lemon in half and, using a juicer, juice the lemon. Remove any seeds from lemon juice. Add lemon juice and zest to the sugar mixture and stir to combine.
If sugar scrub is still too “wet”, add up to 1/2 cup more sugar until desired consistency is reached.
Just take about 1 teaspoon in your hand and scrub away! When you are done scrubbing, rinse thoroughly. The lemon gives off a wonderfully clean scent, the coconut oil helps to moisturize your skin, and the sugar helps to exfoliate!
This is a great gift for all those special women in your life. Or even as a gift to yourself! So go ahead, treat yourself! Make up 2 batches!
