A hint of vanilla adds a warm, amazing scent.

Vanilla Brown Sugar Scrub Ingredients

• 2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract – Homemade Vanilla Extract or store bought. 

Optional: Add a few drops of your favorite essential oils. My favorites for this recipe include Bergamot, Orange, Lemon, and Sandalwood.

2. Add oil and vanilla extract.

How to Gift Scrubs

• To gift this vanilla brown sugar scrub, scoop into a sealable jar. You can add a free printable label as well!
• I like to use burlap or any fabric paired with a thick ribbon for decoration. Cut a square piece of burlap, wrap it around the jar, and tie it off with a piece of twine or ribbon.
