Making Bath Scrub



My daughter and I love orange bath scrub! We have discovered that we can easily make our own for a fraction of the cost of store-bought scrub.
What’s more, we know the ingredients in our version are all natural.


Scented bath scrub also makes an excellent Mother's Day gift.
It is the perfect skin smoother for the bride too! We made a couple of jars for gifts, purchasing some thin ribbon and two pretty jars at Wal-Mart. The jars were $1.67 each, and the spool of ribbon was less than a dollar. I made up a couple of labels on the computer for the jars. The essential oil I bought on eBay for less than three dollars. There’s enough in the bottle to make a ton of bath scrub!

Supplies:

  • 4 cups Epsom salt
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp. essential oil for fragrance
  • food coloring
  • large bowl
  • measuring cups
  • large spoon
  • ribbon
  • labels
  • decorative jars




Thanks for stopping by!
