You can put these into cute containers, add a little ribbon or a label and you’re good to go. Just follow the steps below and we’ll walk you through making your own DIY Sugar Scrub Bars!
DIY Sugar Scrub Bars
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Coconut Oil
- 1/2 cup Melt and Pour Soap Base shredded or cubed
- 3-4 drops Essential Oil
- 1 cup Sugar
- Mica Colorant Optional
Instructions
- In a double boiler, melt your shredded soap. If you do not have a double boiler, microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring in between until melted.
- Mix in your coconut oil until combined and add your essential oil.
- Add in your color mica and mix until you get a uniform color.
- Mix in your sugar and stir until well combined. You are looking for a slushy like consistency.
- Pour into your molds and allow to dry for 1-2 hours before un-molding.
- *If your sugar and soap mixture gets to thick, microwave on 10 second bursts until you are able to pour.
Don’t stress over the prep time listed on this DIY Sugar Scrub Bars craft. The time does include the time that the bars are setting up, which is an hour or two. I always let mine sit about 2 hours just to make sure they are hardened. If you are looking for something small to get started in essential oils, then check out this kit. It includes their top six oils and if you like those, they have 99 to choose from.
Enjoy!
