Homemade Peppermint Sugar Scrub Recipe
INGREDIENTS
2 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Coconut Oil (or Almond oil if you prefer)
Red Food Coloring
Peppermint Essentials Oil (found near Candle Making Supplies at Hobby Lobby or Online)
Optional: Add a tablespoon of Vegetable Glycerine for extra moisturizer. Glycerine is not easily found in stores so do yourself and favor and order it online. It will save you time and gas. Trust me. It makes your skin amazingly soft.
DIRECTIONS
Pour sugar into medium sized bowl.
Mix in coconut oil (add more if you like a wet consistency).
Add a few drops of your Peppermint Essentials Oil.
Divide your sugar mixture into two equal sized portions.
Mix in a few drops of red food coloring to one portion (be careful not to add to much or you will have a bright red).
Add your sugars to the jar in layers. Press your Sugar down with a spoon or I use a can to compact.
Alternate between your pink and white layers
Add a Label to the front and maybe a ribbon to gift.

Can you eat this? I was wondering if the peppermint oil is edible, because some people seem to think its toxic.
I have never thought to eat it. I don’t think I would suggest eating it. Why would you want to? I’ve never heard that peppermint oil was toxic? I would read the label of your oils to determine that. There are many different brands.
The store is out of peppermint essence – can I substitute pure peppermint extract?
Yes you can!
Perfect product!! I love it for myself and it is easy to make and give to friends!
How does the coconut oil work in this one? Does it solidify?
What size jar should I use for this scrub?
I would use the 4 oz or 6 oz.
Oh, and I like to use the wide mouth jars too.
Great ideas for meaningful Christmas gifts!
I love scrubs and I have never tried this one. Pinning for later and will definitely try later 🙂
