I tried out this homemade sugar scrub, compliments of frugal living blogger Homemade Ginger. (Thanks Pinterest!)
Homemade Sugar Scrub
Equal parts brown sugar and white sugar (ends up being about 1/4 cup each for a 6 oz. jar)
Fill to the top with olive oil (cover the sugars and then maybe an extra 1/2 inch)
Add about 1-2 Tbs of vanilla extract for some yummy flavor.
Pros:
The ingredients are already in your household.
It’s ridiculously easy to put together.
The sugar scrub attacks your dead skin like a BOSS.
Cons:
It’s just… the olive oil. It leaves my skin feeling oily, leaves a residue on my bathtub, and makes my ultra-fine hair look greasy after JUST getting out of the bath (just from being in the water!).
