I love sugar scrubs but I hate paying $15 for them! And really? It is absolute nonsense to do so. They are SO easy to make. This DIY Peppermint Sugar Scrub will take you about 5 mins to mix up, uses just three main ingredients and is the PERFECT gift for the holidays!

DIY Peppermint Sugar Scrub Ingredients:

(contains affiliate links)

• 1 jar-I used a 4″Dia. x 4″H red clamp lid glass canister from Cost Plus World Market. The measuring spoons are adorable but certainly not essential. You can get them here.
• 2 cups RAW Sugar-I used the brand Sugar in the Raw
• 3/4 cup FRACTIONATED Coconut Oil-this is the kind stable in the liquid form.
• 20 drops Peppermint Essential Oil OR 1 tbsp Peppermint Extract. I personally think the essential oil produces a better product.

DIY Peppermint Sugar Scrub Directions:

• Add sugar to jar
• Add oil to jar
• Add your Peppermint oil or extract to jar
• Stir well
• Seal and decorate jar. Add a ribbon and one of these adorable Christmas printable tags from my friend Jen

Viola! I am guessing one of the most easy-peasy gifts you have ever made.
