Chocolicious Sugar Scrub: A Recipe

I thought it might be fun to post make at home recipes on my blog from time to time, so here is the first of many to come!

INGREDIENTS:
1 Tablespoon Cocoa Powder
1/2 Cup Sugar (brown or white)
1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil (Soybean, Canola, Sunflower, your choice)
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

DIRECTIONS:
Mix all ingredients together. Rub into moist skin (in the shower is best) in a circular motion to exfoliate tired skin and increase circulation.

This delicious scrub will leave you glowing!

ABOUT:
Because this scrub does not contain a preservative, it should be used the day it is made. Please discard any unused portion. Preservatives are VERY important in scrubs. When water is introduced into a scrub (via a splash, a wet hand or steam) the water brings bacteria with it. Bacteria would just love to run a muck in your sugar scrubs! Please be careful and make sure your scrubs are properly preserved or that scrubs with out preservative are used up while still fresh!
