DIY Peppermint Sugar Scrub

In yesterday's post I mentioned that we made a Peppermint Sugar Scrub during our "spa party." This is so easy--only a few ingredients, smells great and very easy on the skin.

What You Need:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1 drop of Peppermint Pure Essential Oil (I found mine for about $5 in a natural grocery store) Essential Oil will take you a lot further than the "oils" you find in craft stores

Just whisk the sugar and olive oil together. You'll get a slightly wet, granular texture. Once those two ingredients are mixed, add the drop of Peppermint Oil. I bought these cute jars from Michael's ($1 each) and added a ribbon, secured by a glue dot, on the back. It made a cute favor for each lady to take home.

It makes a great gift for teachers or neighbors, too!
