These cheeky little “lumps of coal” themed scrubby nuggets are a delightful, gift-able bath treat. I’ve made a ton of scrubs since 2011, and scrub nuggets deserve way more love because they solve two of the biggest problems of the far-more-popular whipped, self-emulsifying anhydrous sugar scrub.
If you’ve been looking for a soft, scoopy, foaming sugar scrub that won’t get too hard or melt into an oily mess… I’ve got good news for you 😄 This Christmas Spice Soft Foaming Sugar Scrub has a really fun, cake-batter-like gooey consistency. It’s perfectly scoopable, lathers beautifully, and smells fantastic. It’s easy and inexpensive to make (you can fill a 250mL jar for about $4), and you can easily customize it. Let’s get scrubby!
Today we’re stirring up a lovely Sea Glass Salt Scrub, made with a sparkling blend of salts and a beautiful fragrance. It’s a brilliant and beautiful body scrub, and you can easily customize it to use whatever salts you have on hand. You don’t need any heat, either, so you can whip up a batch in just a few moments. Let’s dive in!
Today we’re mixing up a fragrant, perfect-for-autumn Cinnamon Sugar Dry Foaming Body Scrub. Starring sugar, rhassoul clay, and a gentle surfactant for all kinds of gorgeous bubbles, this 7-ingredient scrub makes a great gift and a great excuse to take a hot bath ❤️
If you’ve been looking for a way to mix up your bath routine, I think you might just love this Calendula + Clay Soft Foaming Body Scrub. It’s a dry, sudsy body scrub that works beautifully on a loofah or between your hands—just work it up with a bit of water and you’ll be rewarded with a rich lather and some soft scrubby-ness that’s perfect for some light exfoliation. Starring white kaolin clay, dried calendula petals, and oatmeal, this Calendula + Clay Soft Foaming Body Scrub is easy to make and has plenty of room for customizing touches.
Over the last couple months, emulsified scrubs of all types have become a big favourite of mine. I’ve always like them, but now I don’t want to take a bath without one! A good scrub leaves my skin all kinds of soft and moisturized—I usually don’t need lotion-ing afterwards (good for nights when I truly can’t be arsed) so I’m set to just climb into my bed and snuggle up with my far-too-many pillows. Today’s Passionfruit Coconut Body Scrub is just such a scrub. A creamy base carries a whole lotta white sugar to sweetly buff my skin and transform my bathwater into lovely, silky goodness for a bit of a post-scrub soaking. Swoon!
