I make homemade beauty recipes, like this Oatmeal Cookie Brown Sugar Scrub often for several reasons- I am a busy mom on a budget and I don't have the time or the money for expensive spa treatments and I like simple sugar scrub recipes.
Luckily, with some experimenting I have found many that I can do at home for very little cost, and they are just as good or better because you don't have to worry about the added chemicals.

Supplies:

Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and transfer to a jar with a tight fitting lid. If you prefer you can pulse the oatmeal for a bit in blender to make the flakes smaller .
Now your Oatmeal Cookie Brown Sugar Scrub is ready to use. It smells just like fresh baked oatmeal cookies. While it is safe to eat, I wouldn't recommend it.😉
I put my sugar scrub in this little container that I found at Target in the dollar spot.

To use: Apply a generous handful of your oatmeal brown sugar scrub to wet elbows, feet, shoulders, or anywhere else that can use a good exfoliating treatment. Scrub vigorously, rinse well, and pat skin dry. I find I don't usually even need a moisturizer after.
