Ingredients for DIY Pink Lemonade Sugar Scrub

1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup oil (almond, olive oil or coconut work best)
1/2 teaspoon vitamin E oil (optional – it helps preserve your scrub and provides a little extra softening)
15 drops lemon essential oil
1-2 drops red food coloring (optional if you want the pink color)

The lemon essential oil gives this scrub such a wonderful and clean lemon scent. Everyone wants this recipe as a gift!

Tip: to get the most therapeutic benefit from your coconut oil, we recommend using non-fractionated coconut oil.

How to Make A Sugar Scrub

Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix together. You can add more or less oil to your liking.
Store in an airtight container. Since this recipe doesn’t contain any preservatives, it’s best if it’s used within a month or two.

See the recipe card for a video tutorial.

How to Use Your Sugar Scrub

Scoop a small amount of the Pink Lemonade Sugar Scrub in your hands with a spoon.
Scrub all over your hands or feet – or wherever you’d like a little extra softness.
Allow your scrub to sit on your skin for 3-4 minutes. Enjoy this time to rest and relax.
Rinse well and then pat dry with a soft towel.

How to Store a Sugar Scrub

The best way to store your scrub is in an airtight container. We prefer glass containers so nothing harmful leaches into your scrub. It will last about 3 months if you store it this way.

Also, make sure your hands are clean if dipping into your scrub directly. Or better yet, use a clean spoon.
