Tips for Making Sugar Scrub Bars
- If you don’t have any melt-and-pour soap on hand for your sugar scrub bars, you can use a bar of soap. Just grate or cut the bar into smaller pieces before melting it.
- If you prefer a finer grit of sugar, use caster sugar, which has a smaller gritty texture. You can also use brown sugar from your pantry. They will help exfoliate and moisturize.
- You can store your sugar scrub bars in a cool and dry area for up to a year. Then you can enjoy your favorite easy sugar scrub recipe all year round!

Add the cubes of soap to the measuring cup.
Melt soap cubes in the microwave, careful not to overdo it.
Mix in the sugar slowly and completely.
Mix in the powdered honey – this stuff is great in DIY bath products.
Mix in the sweet almond oil. If you want a scent, you can add one of your favorite essential oils.
Pour the mixture into the mold, taking care not to overfill.
Allow to harden for 1 or 2 hours. Then you can pop out your solid sugar scrub bar.
Notes For Making Your Homemade Sugar Scrub Bars
- Although you can use any style mold, including plastic, we recommend silicone as they are easy to work with and you can pop your sugar scrub bars out with ease.
- If you use fragrance oil and color in your sugar scrub bars, look at the ingredients and check if it contains vanillin. If so, your colors may bleed or turn brown. To avoid this, use a color stabilizer and you’ll have no issues.
- Unless you have water as one of the ingredients in your sugar scrub bars, you do not need a preservative like Phenonip and Germaben II E.
