Yummy handmade sugar scrub

One of my favorite things to use is sugar scrub. I have tried them all, some are too greasy and some are too flowery. Most are full of unwanted and unneeded chemicals. So I decided to make my own and you can too:)

6 cups of sugar
3 oranges
Orange essential oil
Pink sprinkles
If you have dry skin you can add a few drops of coconut oil.

Use a veggie peeler to peel the skin of 2 oranges. Juice 3 oranges. Put sugar in a mixer add ten drops of orange essential oil (you can make this without it) and blend. In a separate container blend peel and orange juice, I use an immersion blender because it makes the mixture really fine. You want it fine so it doesn't clog your drain. Add the juice to the sugar and blend until fluffy. Adding more sugar if needed or more juice until it is glossy and well blended.
Fill your jars and add pretty tags!
You are all set for great gifts.
Warning: people will ask for refills:)
Enjoy!
