Honey Sugar Scrub Formulation (Recipe)

Submitted By:

Pamela

Summary:

Super for manicures!

Ingredients:

2 oz honey
2 oz beeswax pellets
1/8 teaspoon borax
4 oz shea butter
4 oz high oleic sunflower oil
2 cups turbinado sugar
1.5 teaspoons Oatmeal, Milk & Honey FO (optional)

Instructions:

I've had this work in the microwave, but for best results melt shea butter to 175 degrees on double boiler for 20 min, remove from heat. Allow to cool to about 130 degrees, add beeswax pellets and borax, stir until dissolved. Add sunflower oil and honey. Stir until well mixed. Cool to room temp but do not let mixture solidify. Add FO and 1.5 cups sugar. Gently mix, package and finish cooling (in the fridge if you're in a hurry). You may need to add a bit more sugar if mix seems gloppy. Preserve with a couple drops liquapar oil or rosemary oil extract. Super for manicures!
