homemade gifts: man scrub



I've got another homemade gift today and this one's for the gents in your life! These little jars are filled with exfoliating goodness for those scratchy faces that only seem to feel more irritated and dry during the winter months. And yes, they have lavender and grapefruit essential oils but I've got a sneaky feeling that men like to feel calm and revitalized too ;) And let's be honest, by labelling it "MAN SCRUB", you've basically erased any connotations of female pampering. Of course, feel free to use any essential oils you may deem "manly" (just make sure they're safe for skin).



Man Scrub (makes one 4 oz. jar)

Ingredients:

Lavender Mint
1/4 cup fine sea salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup avocado oil
1/8 cup coconut oil

Citrus Mint
1/4 cup fine sea salt
1/4 cup white granulated sugar
1/8 cup avocado oil
1/8 cup coconut oil
15 drops grapefruit essential oil
5 drops peppermint essential oil

For each batch you will need:
1 4 oz. jar
Small bowl
Stir stick or spoon
Printable labels

1. In a small bowl, combine the sea salt, sugar, and oils. Mix well.
2. Add the essential oils and mix again.
