DIY Beauty: Pumpkin Spice Sugar Scrub

I love the the month of November. I love the vibrant hues of fall leaves, I love the chilly but crisp fall air, and, of course, I love Thanksgiving!

While I always look forward to spending quality time with my family, I would be lying if I said that my brother’s divine pumpkin pie isn’t one of the main reasons why I am so excited to go home for Thanksgiving break. Since he doesn’t make it that often, when I crave the scent of rich fall spices, I make my own pumpkin spice sugar scrub. Yes, it smells as good as it sounds!

Read on to learn how you can make your own pumpkin spice sugar scrub:

What you’ll need:

• 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup granulated or raw sugar
• 1/3 cup sweet almond oil or coconut oil

How to:

Step One

In a bowl, mix together the sugars and spices with a spoon.

Step Two

Gently blend in the sweet almond or coconut oil.

Step Three

Scoop the mixture into a container or jar with a lid and seal tightly. This scrub will keep in the refrigerator up to a month. Use it to gently exfoliate skin one or two times a week. (Psst, these also make great gifts!)
