Let's accept that Christmas is almost here and we may need to start planning!! I've been making my own body scrubs for sometime now and I love it. They are so simple to do, cheap as hell and you know exactly what is in them.
Put them in pretty jars and wrap them up as pressies for friends & family - you can even tailor them to their favourite ingredients.
The Basics:
Sugar - I use white predominantly but you can use any.
Coconut Oil - this stuff is good for anything and everything.
Avocado Oil - you can use any oil, olive, rapeseed, Argan, they're all good.
Lavender Essential Oil - for the aroma and the 'relaxing' element. Use Rose, Tuberose, Peppermint, mix it up or make lots for whatever requirements you have.
Some cracking variations are honey, lemon, ground coffee, baby oil, vanilla & oatmeal.
Pick up some pretty jars from TK Maxx or if you're really skint I use jam jars. Give it a whirl and see how easy it really is.
Don't just take my recipes and suggestions, get on Pinterest - there are endless ideas.
Give it a whirl, I'd love to know how you get on. Happy creating 🎄
