Easy, Simple Scrubs

Homemade sugar scrubs are really simple (and cheap) to make and are great for giving as gifts!

Try a combination of any of these:
white sugar
brown sugar
raw sugar
sea salt
Epsion salt
 
olive oil
vegetable oil
coco butter
coconut oil
 
vanilla extract
peppermint extract
lemon extract
coconut extract
