When making our diy bath and beauty products, we like to use Rocky Mountain Oils, because they have such a great selection of single oils as well as essential oil blends. We also love this mica powder for any of our projects that require color, and this sweet almond oil anytime a carrier oil is called for in a recipe.

Homemade Orange Sugar Scrub

Homemade sugar scrubs are super simple to make. In fact, they are so easy to whip together in jut a few? minutes, that I find it pointless to buy something like this at the store. Not to mention the money you will save, since this invigorating homemade orange sugar scrub costs just a few bucks to make for three 4oz jars! You can make some for yourself and gift the rest. Or, you can just make a big batch for you to enjoy!

I do have other sugar scrub recipes that you might want to give a try though, so I’d totally go with the gifting aspect. Your friends will thank you! Try my French Vanilla Coffee Sugar Scrub and this Natural Sugar Scrub with Fresh Blueberries. I think you will like them both!
