Honey Almond Sugar Scrub Recipe

Did you know you can use honey from your pantry in homemade bath and beauty products? We used store-bought honey in our almond honey sugar scrub recipe and our skin has never felt better,

The last time I shopped at a bath and body boutique, the sugar scrub was almost $20. Why waste that money when you can make it for under $2 at home?

Tips for Making an Almond Sugar Scrub

• If you do not have white granulated sugar for this recipe, you can substitute brown sugar and get the same great results.
• Coconut oil is a great oil to substitute for the almond oil if you don’t have it on hand.
• When making this for others and you are unsure if someone has an allergy to nut oils, use a jojoba oil (or other non-nut oil).
• If you aren’t able to get the almond fragrance oil for this almond sugar scrub, add almond extract from the pantry.
• Instead of using honey from the kitchen for this recipe, you can easily substitute dry honey powder. I really like it in the solid scrub cubes I made and it’s less messy.

Add the sugar for this homemade body scrub to a large mixing bowl. Run a fork or your hand through it to break up any clumps.

Pour in the sweet almond oil and almond fragrance.

Drizzle the honey into the bowl for this DIY sugar scrub recipe. If you’re using dry honey powder, use the equivalent amount.

Mix in the rose gold color until well combined. Store in a glass jar (or other airtight container) until ready for use. This scrub is best used within 5 days.

Notes for Making or Gifting a Sugar Scrub

• Store homemade sugar scrubs in an airtight container at room temperature.
• Gift or keep this scrub in a single-use container. Water or detritus on hands can contaminate the mixture.
• This scrub should be used within a few months (if kept in a sealed, airtight container without an opening). The best way to determine shelf life is by using the expiration date of the SHORTEST date on the ingredients list but always use before 6 months.
• If you’re making gifts in advance for birthdays, Christmas, or other events, iI recommend a SOLID cube sugar scrub like these DIY natural honey sugar scrub cubes. They last longer, are less messy, and are already a single use serving.
