Fragrances are a great source of inspiration for handmade products. Often, a scent gives you an idea of the colors and designs you want to use. As soon as I smelled Blueberry Jam Fragrance Oil, I immediately thought, “This would make a great scrub!” The fragrance features notes of sweet blueberry, orange zest and just a pinch of spice.
This Blueberry Jam Sugar Scrub will get your skin exfoliated and ready for shorts and tank tops. Sugar and Jojoba Beads exfoliate and leave the skin feeling fresh. The jojoba beads also add a lovely blueberry color to the scrub. To lightly cleanse the skin, it contains potassium cocoate (a form of liquid soap). Fractionated coconut oil adds some moisture to the recipe.
