DIY Lemon Sugar Scrub

Making your own sugar scrub is easy and inexpensive compared to buying them at a store. Sugar scrubs are used to help exfoliate dry skin and replace moisture with nourishing oils. Essential oils give sugar scrubs a wonderful scent and this lemon sugar scrub is revitalizing and energizing. Sugar scrub can be made into small cubes by adding goat’s milk soap to your recipe. These make a wonderful handmade gift when stored in airtight contains, such as mason jars. Today I’m sharing this easy recipe for how to make your own lemon sugar scrub cubes.

How to make sugar scrub cubes

This sugar scrub recipe is adapted from my coffee sugar scrub cubes and is really easy to make. You can use any essential oil you prefer to create your favorite sugar scrub cube recipe. I really enjoy lemon scented sugar scrub and wanted to make a cube version to give as gifts this holiday season. The recipe is made with grated goat’s milk soap, almond oil, sugar, essential oil and colorant. If you’re allergic to almond oil you can replace it with coconut oil.
I’ve added Amazon affiliate links to the supplies I used below.

Note: Adding a color to your sugar scrub is completely optional. If you choose to give your sugar scrub cubes a yellow hue you can use soap colorant or one drop of yellow food dye. In case you’re wondering the food dye will not stain your hands. It’s such a small amount that it barely tints the sugar scrub batch. This is

So this recipe says 1/4 almond oil. 1/4 what? Tablespoon? Teaspoon? Cup?

I used 1/4 of a cup and seemed to work well with the other measurements. Hope that helps.
