How To: Pink Lemonade Sugar Scrub

In this turorial you will see how to make an exfoliating Pink Lemonade Sugar Body Scrub. Simply apply in the shower to wet skin, rub in, and rinse! This super-simple DIY project also makes a great, inexpensive gift.

 You will need:

• A container with a lid (jar, pot etc.) 

• A spoon (something to stir with)

• A grater

• Knife (chopping board if needed)

• Sugar

• 2-4 Lemons

• Coconut/Olive oil (any oil will do)

• 2-5 Raspberries

• Cup

Firstly, you're going to want to take your container and fill it three quaters of the way with sugar. Add your coconut oil (or oil of your choosing) and stir.

Then, grate a lemon for a small amount of zest. Cut your lemons in half, and squeeze the juice into your pot or jar with the sugar and oil. Then, crush your raspberries into your cup until a liquid. If you like, drain the liquid to rid of pips, but note: pips are an exfoliant! 

Then, add your raspberry juice to your sugar along with your lemon juice and zest, and mix. You should have a pinky, thick substance, with a consistancy of a slush. It should smell great, and the lemon and raspberry contain natural antioxidants and Vitamin C to give the skin a radiant glow and keep it renewed and healthy. It also renews the skin cells and the exfoliants will remove any dead skin cells.
