DIY Sugar Scrub and Lip Scrub | Beauty/Fashion

Sugar Body Scrub

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup coconut oil

1 teaspoon honey

6-ounce container

bowl and wooden spoon

This is a recipe I’ve used when I’ve tanned too much and need to exfoliate. Mix sugar and coconut oil together in a bowl. Add in honey. Make sure mixture is thick and viscous. If the mix is too liquidity, add more sugar. Place in container and seal tightly. Keep in room temperature place (cabinets are ideal). Use after sun exposure, but not when you’re burnt.

Lip Scrub

2 tablespoons of honey

2 tablespoons of brown sugar

3-4 ounce small container

spoon

This is my Jamaican friend’s recipe for a DIY lip scrub that she swears by. Add the honey and sugar to the small container and mix together. Apply to lips, then rinse off.
