Country Sugar Scrub Bars

Sugar scrubs are perfect for exfoliating dead skin cells and stimulating blood flow.

Materials:

1/3 cup sugar
3 drops food coloring (optional)
1/2 teaspoon coconut oil
10 drops vanilla essential oil

Preparation:

Mix all ingredients together and press into lightly oiled mold.  (The clear, plastic Crisco shortening stick tubs work well). Allow bars to dry (24-48 hours) before use.

To Use: Take sugar scrub bar and rub it on to wet skin.  Give extra attention to rough areas.  Be aware that placing the bar in water will cause the sugar to dissolve and the bar to turn to mush.  Make smaller, one-time use bars for the shower.
