This sugar scrub is the perfect thing to add to your bed time routine or to gift to a friend.
There’s just one thing I love more than creating my own beauty products. And that’s the beach – hah!
But when I can’t get to the beach, a simple sugar scrub that has coconut oil, lime and vanilla will have to do. These tropical notes are subtle, which is perfect for winding down at the end of the day.

WHY MAKE YOUR OWN BEAUTY PRODUCTS?
There are a slew of reasons you would want to begin creating your own beauty products – gaining control of what products your family uses, cutting out a grocery store and choosing higher quality products being chief among them.
Whatever route you take to creating your own beauty products, just know that you are creating something beautiful for you and your family. And taking ownership of what we put on, and in, our bodies is never something to be ashamed of.
