I love making my own body and hand scrubs! They are such an easy personal care product to make, so inexpensive and also easy to customize! Which makes these right up my alley! These also make incredible gifts!! So they are perfect for the holiday season, birthdays or would be the perfect gift at a wedding! This grapefruit mint sugar scrub is one of my favorite smell combos ever because it is uplifting and inspiring, bright and minty all in one! Plus is does a great job exfoliating your skin and is something I love to keep on hand in my shower for regular use! This is also perfect to keep by the kitchen sink to give your hands a good scrub after washing all those dishes. Hello #momlife. I am so excited to share how to make this grapefruit mint sugar scrub with you today!
