Homemade Vanilla Sugar Body Scrub Recipe

In hope to be more sustainable and save the planet, I have made an aim to make more beauty products at home, have fun and be creative with it. About a month ago, I started making this scrub recipe just to test it out and now I have all my friends making it as it’s so good.

Ingredients + Recipe

an up cycled jar 

1/2 cup of coconut oil 

1/2 cup of soft brown sugar (any sugar will do) 

1 tbsp of vanilla essence

-------------

Combine all ingredients in a bowl until it's a whipped, smooth consistency. Pop this in a jar and use once a week for a good exfoliation and moisturize. 

The coconut oil is great at locking in moisture and leaves your skin smelling and feeling incredible. It’s a wonder product and has so many cool benefits for your body, skin and health. 

The brown sugar acts as a great exfoliant and really gets in and removes all the dead skin.

I think it’s best used once you’ve done a hard workout, before you shave your legs etc. Please just make sure you're careful when using it in the shower, as it’ll make the surfaces quite slippy.

Enjoy getting scrubbed up! - what a pun.
