May Mask of the Month -- Hawaiian Sugar Scrub

Inspired by my vacation to Maui, I give you the...

Hawaiian Sugar Scrub


1 1/2 cups fine white sugar
1/2 cup fine sea salt
1/2 - 3/4 cup Virgin Coconut Oil (as needed)
1 tblsp. Pineapple Fragrance Oil (optional)
16 oz jar or container

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and add more or less of the Virgin Coconut Oil to your suit your preference.  The mixture may seem dry at first, but wait a few hours and then add more of the coconut oil if necessary.  Scrub should be moist, and not too much of the oil should be floating on top.   You can also make an all sugar or all salt scrub if you prefer one over the other or change the ratio of sugar to salt.


The Virgin Coconut Oil smells just like coconuts, is very light and absorbs nicely in the skin.  We've scented ours with pineapple fragrance oil for a real Hawaiian tropical scent.  This scrub makes a great gift idea!

Use this scrub on any part of your body except the face.  Rub it in with a pair of exfoliating bath gloves.  It will leave you feeling fantastically smooth and the scent will make you feel like your really in the tropics!
