Title: Lemon Sugar Hand Scrub
Post by: Lucyluu on July 07, 2013, 05:00:04 am

Lemon Sugar Hand Scrub

Begin my mixing 2 1/2 Cups of Sugar with 1 Cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Add in 4 Tablespoons of Lemon Juice {or scented essential oils to your liking}.
This mixture will make enough to fill a 12oz. Mason Jar {and you’ll have just enough left over to clean your hands afterwards too}
Mix really well until a gritty paste forms and spoon into a glass container. {make sure your container has a lid that seals}
 After sitting for awhile you may need to mix prior to using as the sugar may settle. A tiny bit is all you need and it leaves your skin extra soft and smooth.
{plus not to mention it scrubs away all craft evidence}
 Thought this might be good for Christmas hampers
Haven't tried it yet. Stephanies website has a lot of other interesting stuff on it.
Have only just discovered it so I'm still exploring

Thanks for this Lucy. It sounds similar to Nanna mays hand scrub which I love and is a little pricey so will be making some of this up soon. It's also great on your heels.  :D

Thanks for sharing Lucy. What a great way to use up lots of lemons.

I think I'll have to go and smile sweetly at a neighbour for some more lemons. My Mum always swore by lemons for her hands.

Made this today with DS4's help. Easy and fun to make. Leaves your hands smelling lovely too.
