Hi! We are a husband and wife DIY team who documents our journey of homeownership one tutorial at a time. We hope you'll follow us on our journey!
Do you like to make DIY gifts for your friends and family? I do. There is just something special about it. I recently made these Spicy Apple Brown Sugar Scrubs for a few close friends of mine. I literally whipped them up one morning before work. That is how easy it is to make this gift!
Supplies:
- 2 cups Brown Sugar
- 1 cup Shea & Cocoa Butter Baby Oil
- 2 cups Epsom Salt
- 1 tablespoon Cinnamon
- 20 drops of Spicy Apple Fragrance
- Four, 1/2 pint mason jars
- Red & White Bakers Twine
In a large bowl add the brown sugar, epsom salt, baby oil, cinnamon, and spicy apple fragrance. Mix well.
Clean the canning jars before placing the brown sugar scrub in them.
Then, carefully fill each jar with the brown sugar scrub mixture.
Seal the jars and then wrap a few layers of bakers twine around the jars.
That’s it! Super simple and inexpensive gift that comes from the heart that you can now give to family and friends!
MMMM! Huge fan of sugar scrubs and this one sounds as delectable as I’m sure it is skin smoothing
Making! Thanks for sharing!

Perfect gift idea! I have never made salt scrub, just sugar. I will have to gift it a shot. Those jars are adorable too. Adding to my Stocking stuffer roundup!
Thanks Johnnie! They are so easy to make and everyone loves them!!!
Awesome– pinnin’ and makin’! Hope you and Mr. SW had a great Christmas! xo
“Spicy Apple Fragrance” -? Is this a type of essential oil, and is it a particular brand? I am assuming I could use other flavors/fragrances, but spicy apple sounds wonderful. Where do you get it? Thanks for clarifying!
Hi Kathy, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to ask a question. I got the spicy apple fragrance in the soap/candle making area at Hobby Lobby. It is an essential oil. I’m sure you could find similar at JoAnn Fabrics, Michaels, and maybe even Whole Foods. Enjoy making your sugar scrubs!
