What is a Sugar Scrub Bar?

A sugar scrub bar is a skincare product made with a combination of sugar granules and nourishing ingredients. It is used while in the shower or bath to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells, leaving the skin smoother and softer.

These sugar scrub bars are made without coconut oil! They use a blend of sugar, almond oil, shea butter soap base, and rose essential oil, these sugar scrub bars are extra pretty with the addition of dried rose petals.

Supplies to Make Rose Sugar Scrub Bars

Before you get started, gather all your supplies so they are handy and ready.

You’ll need the following items:

• A microwave safe glass jar or measuring cup
• Wooden craft sticks – these make cleanup really easy. You can use anything you have available if you don’t have wooden craft sticks.
• A silicon mold – I used these flower shaped molds:

• Sweet Almond Oil :

Almond oil has many benefits for the skin, including moisturizing, reducing inflammation, improving complexion, and preventing acne.

This is the one I used:

• Shea Butter Melt and Pour Soap Base

Shea Butter moisturizes and nourishes the skin, reduces inflammation, provides relief for dryness and itching, improves collagen production, helps with acne and blemishes, and protects against sun damage.

While it’s available in it’s raw form, in this DIY, we’re using it in the form of this melt and pour soap base.

This is the one I used for this recipe:

Essential Oils

Essential Oil adds the scent to these sugar scrub bars. I used Rose for this DIY.

Rose essential oil has many benefits including*:

• Moisturizing and hydrating the skin.
• Soothing skin irritation and reducing redness.
• Promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
• Boosting mood and promoting feelings of happiness.
• Supporting hormonal balance in women.
• Enhancing the appearance of the skin by reducing the signs of aging.
• Acting as a natural aphrodisiac.
• Supporting healthy digestion.
• Smells fabulous!!

You can substitute something else in place of the Rose. Geranium is a good substitute.

Any essential oil will work!
