Gingerbread Sugar Scrub

This subtly spicy sugar scrub can help warm your senses during the chilly months to come. The delicious scents of molasses and gingerbread spices make this recipe a treat to whip up. Moisturizing Hazelnut Oil and vitamin-rich molasses condition your skin, while crunchy Turbinado Sugar buffs and exfoliates. Ginger, Cinnamon, and Clove Powders give this scrub a hint of spice, without being irritating to the skin. This recipe is a great way to indulge yourself on cold Winter nights. It also makes a great gift for the Winter holidays and birthdays. Be sure to add a preservative when giving scrubs as gifts. 10 drops of Grapefruit Seed Extract can help reinforce this recipe nicely.
