pour some sugar on me


with valentine's day approaching, i thought i would share a fun and usable treat i made last month. it's a perfect gift for valentine's and you can enjoy the spa experience at home. you + special someone + bath + sugar = valentine's day luxury. this is also a great home exfoliating treatment to use a few days to one week before your wedding. 

homemade brown sugar body scrub
1 c brown sugar
1/2 c olive oil
drops of essential oils
(i chose cinnamon oil for a spicy-warm fragrance and tangerine for a refreshing-invigorating one)

add brown sugar to mixing bowl, pour in olive oil, use dropper to add essential oil (amount at your discretion) and mix together. chose jars that can get wet. i found great glass jars at the craft store that did the trick. the final touch, if you use labels or decorative paper, is to modge-podge over it to keep the ink from running. enjoy!
