I was shopping in a Walgreens a while back and I purchased a small container of sugar scrub. It cost somewhere between 5 – 10 dollars. I am always looking for a good exfoliating scrub and this stuff worked great. Before this I had been using an exfoliating scrub from Clinique, which is great, but a bit pricey. After Jules and I had gone through a few containers of the Walgreens scrub, I decided to try my hand at making my own.
Here are the steps I took:

Now take it into the shower and scrub yourself! Be careful though, the oil tends to make the floor a bit slick! I have never fallen after using it, but I am also careful! Also, the ants will love it, so you might have to control them as well. I personally use “ant chalk,” purchased in various shops in different China Towns.
Sometimes I will not soap off after using it and just allow the oil to soak into my parched skin, which feels great! Other times I will soap off the excess.
The great thing about this scrub is that it is completely non-toxic. That means I can use it over 100% of my body. At first it felt a bit rough, but over time I have gotten quite used to it. It is also a quite tasty and I have been known to lick my lips after scrubbing my face with it! Yummy!
