I Love Fall Most of All…
Let’s get something straight – here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, I’m not a big pumpkin spice latte drinker. I would rather have almost anything else on a coffee menu.
That said, I LOVE the smell of pumpkin pie, pumpkin spice, and even pumpkin lattes. I’ll be honest: when I see the first leaves turn colors, I’m really just counting down the days until it’s acceptable to make two pumpkin pies so you can eat one before Thanksgiving dinner.
Tell me I’m not alone… As we wait for the colors to turn, here’s a wonderful, pampering sugar scrub to welcome in the change of seasons. And this has just been added to my favorite list of DIY sugar scrubs!
Can’t Make This Now? Save It for Later

Can I Use Brown Sugar in Sugar Scrubs?
YES! I made another batch recently and below is how it turned out. This pumpkin scrub is a darker color but smells amazing. Use brown sugar in your scrub if you’d like a fall scrub perfect for gifting.

How to Use a Sugar Scrub and How Long This Lasts
Take a generous scoop of scrub and massage the mixture over your skin in a small, circular motion. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. Follow up with your favorite moisturizer.
This mix should be used within a week. We’ve had them last longer, however, if the mix is “contaminated” with water, such as in the shower or with a wet hand scooping it out for use, it is best used quickly.
