DIY Body Scrub
A DIY Body Scrub is a perfect thing to keep next to your sink to scrub your hands and keep them nice and soft. Or bring it in the shower with you for a full body scrub! I also love giving sugar scrubs away as gifts! These make the perfect teacher gifts, Mother's Day gifts or birthday gifts!

This is a great scrub! I am going to make it for mothers day! Would we be able to get a copy of your label for the scrub? It is so pretty,and I know I will not be able to duplicate. 🙂

Hi! I have included the link to a label for this. Best of luck! It will be such a wonderful Mother's Day gift!

Can you suggest a different base rather then coconut oil? Would shea butter or emu moisture cream work?
Ashley Phipps
You can use any type of oil you prefer! Grapeseed oil, rosehip oil, jojoba oil etc. I would personally use an oil base versus a butter base, but you can give it a try.
