Grapefruit Sugar Scrub Recipe
Y’all know I love me some sugar scrub recipes! It’s such a great gift idea and the perfect gift for minimalists. It’s easy to make and works so much better than the store-bought alternatives.
It works to exfoliate and moisturize your skin by sloughing dead skin and soothing dry skin. This recipe uses fresh citrus just like my Coconut Lime Sugar Scrub and Mandarin DIY Sugar Scrub recipe.
Living in the South, citrus fruit abounds! Fresh, juicy, beautiful grapefruits can be enjoyed at almost any time of year. But in springtime, 10 pounds bags start to go on sale and for around $5 you can get all the grapefruit you can eat!
After I’ve exhausted my appetite for grapefruit salad, infused water, fresh squeezed juice, or just a quick snack I find that I still have at least a few grapefruits leftover. Not one to let it go to waste and knowing what an amazing scent it adds to homemade beauty recipes, I decided to whip up a batch of this Homemade Grapefruit Sugar Scrub Recipe.
Grapefruit Sugar Scrub Ingredients
- White sugar
- Coconut oil (alternatives: olive oil or sesame oil)
- Fresh grapefruit juice (you could also use grapefruit essential oil)
With all of these fresh ingredients, this grapefruit scrub is perfect for sensitive skin and can even be used as a face scrub or on your lips.
How to make Sugar Scrub
- Mix together sugar and coconut oil in a bowl with a spoon until soft and well combined.
- Add grapefruit juice and oil and stir.
- Place into a widemouthed quart-sized mason jar.
- You can finish off with twine or a homemade label. There is no food coloring in this recipe, but if you wanted a more dramatic color you could always add a few drops.
