Unicorn Sugar Scrub Recipe
Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, unicorns are ALL the rage in our house and with my daughter’s friends. I decided to let the adults get in on the fun and make some rainbow unicorn sugar scrub. Maybe I’ll throw a little mini unicorn party for the adults, because, why not?!
I love making body scrub recipes and you can find all of them here. These are easy to make – so easy the kids can even make them for friends, moms and caregivers, or just anyone who needs a little pampering.

Tips to Make Unicorn Sugar Scrub
- Don’t feel like you’re stuck with pastel colors. Make your unicorn sugar scrub as intense or as pale of a color set as you like BUT only use soap or mica colorants. NOT food coloring.
- Why don’t we use food coloring? Because it will likely stain your bathtub, hands, and skin. Avoid all that and use soap colorant.
- Please use warmed coconut oil (doesn’t have to be melted), but using the hard, cold oil is frustrating work.
- If you’d like to use a different fragrance oil other than bubble gum, I recommend cotton candy. Either one will go with the rainbow sugar scrub.
- Can you use your favorite essential oils instead of the fragrance oil? Of course!
- Use 4 small bowls. It is easier to start by splitting the ingredients as you go than making this sugar scrub recipe in a big batch.
