With the holidays coming up, this sugar scrub recipe is also a great gift idea! Sometimes we have to be careful giving out perfumed items, due to sensitivity issues or having a reaction to the fragrance. Though, with this recipe, since it uses coconut oil (or olive oil) it can actually be very beneficial for your skin and can help clear any skin irritations as well. Some sugar scrub recipes are actually recommended to those who have eczema or other skin issues, specifically for those who have chronic dry skin. You can also add vitamin E oil to add a bit of extra “boost” to improve your overall skin health.

    • LOL. I'm silly. I don't mind the oils. But I can't stand the thought of putting sugar on me. I'm sweet enough! LOL. :)

    • Sounds great. There's a lot of people who have dry skin. I'm sure they would benefit most from the scrub but if the scrub the skin feeling refreshing then perhaps I'll try the scrubn and see just how effective it is. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

    • I love sugar scrubs. I use them to give myself a facial. I never thought about making my own, although it seems easy to make.

    • I wonder if sugar dissolves in oil, since other items are optional, it will be just sugar and oil. Easy DIY though.
