Ingredients
- 1 clear plastic jar
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- lemon juice (optional)
- scented essential oils (optional)
Directions
1
mix the sugar and olive oil in the plastic container. I do not recomend using a glass jar for this, since you will most likely have this in your bathroom.2
add any optional scents you like. I have discovered that adding peppermint oil or orange oil helps refresh you, while lavender is more soothing. My favorite oil to use is sandlewood.3
to use: place some on a wash cloth and rub in circles anywhere you need exfoliation. After letting it sit for awhile the sugar may settle to the bottom, so it may be necessary to shake this up a little before using.

Wow I love this stuff...I haven't had any essential oils laying around so haven't made it using those..but I love it just fine just the same...the only problem it's a tough choice whether or not to use it as a face scrub or eat it as a dessert LOL

Even better is to use coconut oil instead of olive. OMG it's wonderful. My skin is so soft right now.

Just a comment - when making your own products with essential oils in them, you should put them into glass containers. You can use plastic, but when you use plastic, some of the essential oils gets absorbed into the plastic and the smell will not last as long as it would in a glass container. Glass containers do not absorb the oils, and you can wash it out easily. So, if you are using a plastic container make sure that you don't intend to use it for any other purpose (like food storage) because the oils get absorbed, and I dont think anyone would like lavender mixed with your leftovers! Thanks!

Awesome recipe! I just needed to treat my hands like a lady
, and this was just perfect with all the ingredients available at home, costing just few pennies, involving the least time possible and providing the finest result! I used the juice of 4 limes as a substitute instead of lemons. I made this in 2 batches: one with the lime juice and 1 without. Both are simply marvellous on my sensitive skin. This is a wonderful recipe. Note: You can also use table salt instead of sugar and make this. It gives good results and is something I have been doing for a very long time now Thanks a bunch for the recipe!
