5. Homemade Bath and Body Sugar Scrubs
Give the gift of spa-like relaxation with an all-natural, homemade body scrub. Sugar scrubs gently exfoliate the skin, leaving it soft and glowing. They are remarkably simple to whip up using standard pantry ingredients: mix granulated white or brown sugar with a carrier oil like coconut oil, almond oil, or jojoba oil, and add a few drops of skin-safe essential oils. Popular combinations include brown sugar and vanilla, or granulated sugar with citrus zest and peppermint. Pack the scrub into a glass jar and tie a wooden scoop to it with a pretty ribbon.
