Peppermint Sugar Scrub
Ingredients:
- 2 cups white or cane sugar
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (use more or less depending on desired consistency)
- Natural Red food coloring (you can also use regular food coloring if you wish)
- Peppermint essential oil (use your favorite brand, or ask me about Neal’s Yard Remedies essential oils that are pure, organic essential oils without the markup)
- Mar jar(s) with lid (makes multiple 4oz and 1/2 pint jars or 1 full pint jar)
Directions:
- Pour sugar into medium sized mixing bowl
- Add coconut oil until desired consistency is reached; stir
- Place a few drops of peppermint essential oil into the mixture
- Divide your sugar scrub mix into two equal portions
- Add a drop or two of food coloring into one of the portions until you reach the color of red you would like
