Why We Love Homemade Coconut Oil Body Scrub
Coconut oil is has become one of the biggest beauty crazes of the century! This amazing white stuff is antibacterial, antifungal, and such an effective moisturizer (and did you know that is one of the few products that can actually penetrate your hair, which means that it actually works from the inside out rather than just sitting on the surface like most hair products).
On top of being incredibly effective, coconut oil smells great and is all natural. Unlike most beauty products that include countless mystery chemicals, this stuff is pure. Using a 100 percent pure option also means that you are not paying for packaging, advertisement, and added ingredients that do nothing for your skin.

Ingredients for Homemade Coconut Oil Body Scrub
For a high-quality blend, it is essential to use high-quality coconut oil. Our fave is Vita Coco Organic Virgin Coconut Oil! This non-GMO, cold-pressed gluten-free coconut oil is unrefined and offers a great quality option for a good price.
Tip- If you have sensitive skin, especially around your face, a finer grain sugar is better. Domino Dark Brown Sugar is a good pick because it is ultra fine and won’t cause irritation. It’s also easy to find and great for cookies!
