Holiday DIY Cookie Sugar Scrub Recipe




The holidays are here and it's the season for sweet treats and DIY gifting. Lately, I've been crafting up a storm of Christmas decor and gifts for family and friends. One of my favorite gifts I'll be giving this year is this homemade vanilla sugar cookie lip and body sugar scrub. It's the perfect gift if you're in a pinch, gifting on a budget, or if you just want to gift something handmade. You'll be surprised how easy it is to whip this up with ingredients you already have in your kitchen pantry. This sugar scrub is made with all edible ingredients and it's delicious. 

Vanilla Sugar Cookie Lip & Body Sugar Scrub

1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 

Pour 1 cup of white sugar and 1 cup of brown sugar into two separate bowls. You will combine the rest of the ingredients in each bowl. Add 1/4 tablespoon of coconut oil, 1 teaspoon of honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to each bowl. Mix well. The scrub should have a similar feel to damp sand. If it's too wet, add more sugar. Once mixed, layer the white and brown sugars neatly into your jar. Finish off your jar with a piece twine or ribbon tied into a bow and add a cute label. I created this adorable, personalized label using Canva.

And there you have it, a cute handmade gift anyone will love to receive this Christmas. Do you plan on giving DIY gifts this year? Let me know in the comments what you plan of crafting for Christmas.

Enjoy!
