You are going to love this brown sugar body scrub. It smells so good and it feels even better on your skin.
Brown Sugar Body Scrub
I love body scrubs but they are so expensive in the store. I’m not sure why those little bottles cost so much to exfoliate your skin.
You can make a ton of this brown sugar exfoliating body scrub for a fraction of the cost of buying it.
There is a restaurant we love and they have the most divine body scrub by the sink to use on your hands. This reminds me of it and I really think you will love it.
What does brown sugar scrub do for your skin?
Brown Sugar naturally exfoliates skin while also moisturizing. It naturally helps to even skin tones and provide smooth and brighter skin.
White sugar is also a natural exfoliant and can be used in beauty products if preferred. Raw sugar helps to rejuvenate the skin while providing a healthy glow.
Brown Sugar Scrub Benefits:
- Exfoliates dry skin.
- Moisturizes your skin.
- Provides a radiant glow
- Helps to even skin ton.
- Removes dirt from skin pores.
How to give as a gift
You might want to make a double batch to hand out to your friends for hostess gifts, birthdays or Christmas. The scrub can be placed into mason jars and make such a thoughtful gift idea.
I purchase my jars at Amazon. They have good prices and it saves me a trip to the store.
Another idea is to make a gift basket with this scrub. You can also include DIY Bath Bombs for an amazing gift set. It is also very easy to make and would make a great item to add to a gift basket.
Ingredients for DIY Body Scrub:
- 2 cups packed brown sugar
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ½ cup honey
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
How to make Brown Sugar Body Scrub:

How to use Brown Sugar Scrub:
Body Scrub can be used several times a week to gently exfoliate dead skin. It is easiest to use in the shower. Simply wet skin and apply the homemade body scrub.
Gently rub the product into your skin with a washcloth. This will allow the homemade sugar scrub to exfoliate and moisturize. Make sure to rinse thoroughly when finished.
It is ideal for dry areas such as elbows, knees and dry patches on your skin.
How to store:
Place scrub inside an airtight container. We prefer to use glass jars.
Mason jars make great storage containers for scrubs and can easily be repurposed.
How long will brown sugar scrub last:
Homemade scrubs typically last 3 to 6 months. This will vary depending on how well it is stored and the environment.
Brown sugar scrub for body variations:
- Almond Oil. Try substituting almond oil instead of the olive oil.
- Vanilla extract. If you like vanilla, add vanilla extract to the scrub.
- Essential Oils. Feel free to use your favorite blend of essential oils in the sugar scrub.

Hello Carrie,
I have been looking for a body scrub with Marula oil. Any chance I can add this oil to your recipe?
Thank you for your time,
Jenne
I haven’t tried that but I think it would work great and mix in well with this sugar scrub! Thank you!
Do you have to store it in the frig???
No, I store in a cool dark place. I generally keep it under my sink in my bathroom.
