SUGAR SCRUB RECIPE
Today I am finally sharing my newest Sugar Scrub Recipe. I love experimenting with new Sugar Scrubs and when we use up the last one, it’s time to come up with another one. This time I chose to make a Lavender Sugar Scrub.
But I think I am finally losing it… Last night I finally sat down to edit these pictures that I had sitting on my camera for the past several days, and couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t get them to download. The computer wasn’t even recognizing my camera card. Then I searched through the house to find the download cord only to find that wouldn’t work either.
So I gave up, ate a snack, and then went to bed. This morning I was determined to figure out the problem…after the kids went to school of course and you know what? The camera photo card was sitting in my other computer. Gah! Haha! It’s amazing what a good night’s rest will do for your brain.
So, my camera card is not corrupt and all is well and the bonus? I get to share this recipe today and you get to make some! You might want too because the Lavender smells amazing! This Lavender Sugar Scrub would also make a great Valentine’s Day gift!

LAVENDER SCRUBS

Lavender Sugar Scrub
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup Raw Sugar
- up to 1/4 Olive Oil or Coconut Oil melted or almond oil as needed
- 1 tablespoon dried Lavender optional but recommended
- 3-4 drops DoTerra Lavender Essential Oil
Instructions
-
Mix together the sugars and slowly add the coconut or almond oil while stirring.
-
Pour in as much oil as you need to get your desired consistency. I do not like my sugar scrubs too oily so I always use less than 1/4 cup.
-
Stir and mix thoroughly.
-
Stir in the essential oil and the Lavender.
-
Store in an airtight container.
-
Lasts up to 3 months if you keep bacteria and germs out of the scrub.
To use:
-
Rub a little bit of the scrub on your body or between your hands with a little bit of water.
-
Rinse with warm water to remove excess oils.
-
It will give your skin a nice exfoliation and leave your skin feeling soft and smooth and smelling like Lavender.
-
Great for use in the shower or bath and before bed time.

Love this. I will have to give it a try. Lavender is one of my favorite scents.
It is one of my favorites too. This is one of my top 3 sugar scrub recipes! Hope you love it too!
We LOVE LOVE LOVE making our own Sugar Scrubs.. Even my boys use them. I can’t believe I’ve never tried a Lavender one! I bet it smells DIVINE!!!
Can’t wait to try!

You are the sweetest! I kinda miss you! Thanks so much! xo
Love this! This would be perfect for Mother’s Day gifts. Pinning!
It really would! Thanks so much Jamielyn!
i really want to try this recipe for my baby shower coming up. how many ounces does each recipe make? also can i just use white sugar and not brown?
thanks!
I love your recipes! Really curious about where you get all of the great jars that you use.
I get a lot of them at Hobby Lobby! Some are re-used Starbucks Frappucino bottles.
I was trying to get your labels but sadly I don’t think it works anymore. However, I have to say I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog! :-D
I use both lavender and frankincense oils on my daughter for medical reasons and would love to have a sugar scrub to use for her during bath time – I looked at both your frankincense and lavender recipes and would like to know if it would be possible to combine the two oils into one scrub? And should I use the 3/4c raw:1/4c white ratio or the 1/2c raw:1/2c white ratio? Thanks!!!
Was wondering if you will ever try Jasmine or Peoni scents.
I just made this recipe and am in love with it!!! Thanks for sharing! :)
I love the scrubs and bath salts. Is there a special reason to use raw sugar?
No. I like to mix things up. You can totally leave it out and it will work just fine. I do like the bigger texture of the raw sugar and it makes a nice exfoliant.
Hi, I have all the ingredients ready but am in the UK
What’s the equivalent of cups in grams? I’ve found a few conversion sights but it’s confusing me :) Also can I use all granulated sugar?
Looking forward to making your recipe x
Where would I find dried lavender?
Hey there- I love you site! ! Especially- your scrubs! I just tried the lavender scrub with coconut oil…..put it in a mason jar and it hardened beyond belief overnight…..I know coconut oil hardens….just wondering what I can do to soften it?
Thanks so much
If you put it in a warm room it should loosen up. You can also place the jar in a little bit of warm water (with the lid shut tightly of course) and see if you can loosen it up again. Some coconut oils harden much more than others!! Hope that helps!
thank u so much
Loving this recipe! Thinking of making as gifts for my sisters bridal shower, wondering if you have any idea of how many times this recipe can be made with the lavender oil from do terra?
Can I make do without the essential oil and raw sugar? Pls reply soon:) thanks!
Yes! Any sugar should work. Just be sure to add a little bit in small amounts to make sure you get the right consistency at the end.
Can I also make do without the raw sugar? Thanks again:)
Yes! Slowly add the other sugar to make sure it ends up with a good consistency!
