Tangarine Sugar Scrub

I was in the mood to try something non-food related.  I used to have my own craft business, was in some shows and two craft malls out of state.  One item I made was soap and I happened to have some essential oils in my basement full of craft supplies.  This is so easy to make but the scrub makes a noticable difference after the first use and it smells good...win!




Tangarine Sugar Scrub

2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup sweet almond oil
15 drops tangarine essential oil (or your favorite scent)

Place all the ingredients in a medium sized bowl and stir the oil and scent into the sugar.  Put in a waterproof container so you can have it handy by your shower or in a decorative container for gift giving.

      Enjoy! I was walking all over last week barefoot and this really helped undo the damage I did...

    I think I can smell the citrusy goodness through the blog. Do you use just plane granulated sugar or something with a little more roughage?

      I used regular granulated sugar. I lent my lemon essential oil to a coworker today to make her own. I think I might mix some scents when I've used this one up for fun.
