Gingerbread Sugar Scrub

This Gingerbread Sugar Scrub is such an easy and fun DIY beauty recipe and makes a great gift too!

I think it was 6th grade when everyone and their BFF wanted to smell like a vanilla dessert. Bath & Body Works probably had Vanilla Sugar, Vanilla Cupcake, Vanilla Cookie, and Vanilla Ice Cream body sprays all on the same shelf. And a lot of preteen girls sprayed themselves with it until their parents couldn’t breathe.

But we’re grown up now and there’s a new sweet scent in town, Gingerbread. I love LOVE LOVE gingerbread. And since I’m older, I’ve moved on from body spray and into the world of great smelling exfoliators like this here Whipped Gingerbread Sugar Scrub.

This is seriously the best sugar scrub I’ve ever used and it makes for an awesome last minute gift for your girlfriends, sisters, or mom! The best part about this scrub? There’s no need for any crazy essential oils, everything you need is right in your pantry! Awesome, right?

This will be my last post before Christmas, but before I sign off I want to wish all of you a wonderful couple of days whether you’re celebrating or not! I’m looking forward to a little time away from my day job and the blog to enjoy some family time. I’ll be making my signature Bourbon & Toffee Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies, Baked Spinach & Artichoke Dip, and my Christmas Punch recipe for the holiday and I’ll be back on Friday to kick off the final week of the year with some killer cupcakes!

What You’ll Need For This Sugar Scrub Recipe:

Cute Jar – If you’re planning on packaging this recipe up and giving it as gifts, cute jars are an absolute must! These cute little Weck jars are my favorite, but These Kate Aspen Jars are great too!
Spoon – Tie a wooden spoon to the jar so it’s easier to get the sugar scrub out.
Bakers Twine – I like using twine to dress them up for holiday gift giving!
Gift Tags – These tags are such an adorable way to mark your scrubs as gifts!
Coconut Oil – There are a lot of different coconut oils out there, you’ll want to use a cold-pressed refined coconut oil, this means it doesn’t have a coconut scent or flavor to it.
Gingerbread Fragrance Oil – For a really strong and amazing scent, you’ll want to use a few drops of fragrance oil, I love this fragrance oil set, so many amazing scents and you can use them to make my Pumpkin Spice Sugar Scrub too!
