Using this sugar scrub at home is like bringing a piece of the spa home with you. I love using sugar scrubs to really exfoliate and clean my skin. The peppermint oil has antibacterial, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties so they are added bonuses to this scrub in addition to making it smell amazing!

As you can see, this scrub is simple to make and would easily be doubled or tripled. You can make this for teacher gifts, Mother’s Day or birthday gifts any woman would love to receive this scrub. It would also be a great craft for a group of girls to make for themselves or for their moms.

My Mom would love this and would probably be most touched by the fact I was able to make it for her without eating the ingredients.
