Ingredients

  • 50 percent white cane sugar (note that organic sucanat, while the best choice for food, doesn't work as well for this recipe) shopping list
  • 50 percent vegetable glycerin to moisten the sugar (I used avocado oil since I was out of vegetable glycerin --as is my health food store-- and it proved to be a successful substitute) shopping list
  • small amounts of aloe vera gel, vitamin C crystals, or anything healing that dissolves in water shopping list
  • 1 or two drops of essential oil if desired (Larry recommends combining orange and lavender) shopping list
  • enough ground hibiscus powder for pink color (if desired) shopping list
  • Combine the ingredients in a bowl. Scoop some of the scrub onto your hand and massage gently onto your skin for a minute (the scrub will actually tighten onto your skin like a masque). Leave on for 3 to 4 minutes before rinsing. shopping list

    I also do the baking soda scrub once in a while! I love homemade beauty treatments! Less expensive and you can control what to put in them! Great post! =)
