Homemade DIY Chocolate Orange Hand Scrub Recipe
How to make the best homemade DIY chocolate orange sugar hand scrub - This refreshing recipe is quick and easy with essential oils, brown and white sugar, and cocoa powder for a healing deep clean that is moisturizing and exfoliating.
Equipment
- half-pint jar
Materials
- 2 heaping tablespoons cocoa powder
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- ⅓ cup olive oil Get something cheap. You aren't eating it; you don't need EVOO.
- 2-3 tablespoons sweet orange essential oil (Be careful with this if you don't want it to be very orangey. You might want to add it in smaller amounts and evaluate. I did use this much, but it wasn't a premium brand.)
Instructions
- Mix everything but the oils in a small bowl. Add olive oil a tablespoon at a time, until the consistency is right. I like mine to be thin, like pudding, so I used quite a bit of oil.
- After the consistency is right, add the essential oil. Use your nose as a guide. You'll know when you have enough.
- Mix it up really well.
- Pour or spoon it into a half-pint jar.
