Scrub Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar Provides the exfoliating texture.
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (melted) Acts as a moisturizing base.
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice Adds fragrance and exfoliating properties.
  • 1-2 teaspoons lavender essential oil For aromatic bliss.
  • optional dried lavender buds For added texture.

Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl For mixing the scrub ingredients.
  • 1 airtight container For storage.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Clean your workspace and gather all materials. Make sure your mixing bowl is dry to avoid clumping.

Mixing Ingredients

  • In the mixing bowl, add 1 cup of granulated sugar. If using dried lavender buds, add them now.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the melted coconut oil, fresh lemon juice, and lavender essential oil. Slowly pour into the bowl with sugar while stirring continuously.
  • Mix until fully combined, aiming for a gritty yet moist consistency that holds together when pressed.

Storing

  • Scoop the mixture into the airtight container and seal tightly to preserve freshness and aroma.

Usage

  • Use in the shower or bath by gently massaging onto skin, then rinsing with warm water.

Notes

Customize your scrub by swapping lavender essential oil with other scents, adding natural food coloring, or substituting ingredients for a different texture. Consider giving as a gift with a label on the container and application instructions.
