Coconut Sugar Scrub

One of my absolute favorite body scrubs is the one I make right at home.   Coconut Sugar Scrub. I apply this scrub(rinse off well) daily over my entire body, as the last part of my shower ritual. Not, only is it removing all that dead skin and revealing a beautiful natural glow, it's also very moisturizing. No need for any lotion once out of the shower.  The coconut oil in the scrub eliminates any dryness I may have. 

In clean jar I add organic sugar(any kind of granulated sugar works just fine) and coconut oil. I also add tea tree oil for the anti-bacterial properties, being that I make enough scrub to last a week I don't want any organisms growing in there, and then stir well. Yup, its pretty simple. If you like you can also add any of your favorite essential oils.

I love making my own scrubs and moisturizers, not only are they sometimes more cost effective, but I know exactly what's in it. No I'm not a natural ingeredient/product fanatic, but the more I can make on my own, the better for me overall
