Learn how to make this simple DIY Brown Sugar Body Scrub recipe uing matcha green tea, coconut oil and essential oils to smooth and moisturize dry skin.
Add the brown sugar to a large mixing bowl. Sometimes brown sugar can get small, hard lumps in it, and they are not fun to find in the scrub later. So, sift through it and remove or break down any hard lumps you may find. If you're using a Brown Sugar Bear, you shouldn't have that issue.
Then, measure and add in the coconut oil. If it needs to be melted a bit in order to use it, simply put the jar in a bowl or pan of hot water for a few minutes. Add the coconut oil to the mixing bowl with the brown sugar. Whisk these two ingredients together well until the sugar is all consistently dampened by the oil. It doesn’t need to be very wet, just a good, dampened texture.
Now add in the Matcha tea powder and repeat mixing with the whisk. The color will change of course, with the addition of the green tea, so you will know when it is well-blended because all of it will be the same, brown color.
Last step in the mixing process is to add in your essential oils. Add them and stir until well combined.
Transfer the scrub into your jar and to finish it off, add a ribbon and a cute label if you’d like.
Notes
To Use
Apply a small scoop of the scrub to damp skin and rub in well. Use on any rougher areas to soften and exfoliate and overall for moisturizing and balance. Keep rubbing in until the sugar is broken down and then rinse well.
