Sugar, oil, vanilla bean and sweet orange oil. Massage on damp skin and rinse.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 10 drops sweet orange jasmine, or rose essential oils
  • Seeds from 1 vanilla bean
  • 1 tablespoon dried heather blossoms (or lavender or rose petals)
  • 1 small wide-mouth glass jar

Directions

  • Put everything in a small bowl and stir well.
  • Scoop into the jar.

Notes

Apply to skin, massage in a gentle circular motion, and rinse well. Store leftover scrub in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Simpler almond white sugar scrub: 1 cup white granulated sugar, 1/2 cup coconut oil, 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon almond extract; apply to damp skin, massage, rinse. Safety: patch test; sweet orange oil can cause sun sensitivity; almond extract is a concern for nut allergies; oil makes the tub slippery.
