Homemade Candy Corn Sugar Scrub

October 4, 2016 by Alison Leave a Comment

Tis the season of dry hands and feet, right ladies?! I’m generally pretty well pedicured and manicured in the spring & summer but come fall and winter I tend to fall off the wagon. I mean I wear boots for basically six months so I guess I’m not as attentive to my tootsies when open toed shoes aren’t in the equation. (You can translate that to I can’t see myself spending $30 on a pedicure that nobody is going to see…yes I’m cheap.)  I do like DIY and homemade beauty hacks though and this sugar scrub is easy to make, it works great when you need a little exfoliation help and it fits in with the seasonal decor or makes a fun and useful gift as well. Really there’s no going wrong with this one.  The recipe below will yield 1 1/2 cups of sugar scrub when complete.
