Lime Sugar Scrub — four ingredients and five minutes is all you need to make this fabulous sugar scrub. It will leave your skin so soft!
Have you ever used sugar scrub before? I tried it for the first time a few weeks ago, and now I am hooked! During the winter months, my skin is always dry and itchy. Using sugar scrub in the shower every day has made a huge difference. I just love the way it makes my skin feel!
I made a batch of cucumber mint sugar scrub for my first batch, and I shared that recipe over at I Heart Naptime. This time around I used lime, because I just adore the scent of limes. So fresh and invigorating!
This stuff is so easy to make — you just stir together some coconut oil

This scrub is amazing. I tried orange as well as lemon and lime. They all turned out great. Is there anything I could use instead of a zest? I don’t always have a lemon or lime in my house and I go through this stuff fast.
do you recommend a specific brand for the white sugar?
thanks I will definitely try lemon then and I LOVE the font
oh and what font did you use for the tags?
I used fonts called “clicker script” and “abril fatface”. 🙂
do you think lemon instead of lime would be nice
Yes, I think lemon would be just as nice. I personally love them both!
How do you print the tags
Just click on the green button near the end of the post. I made it bigger so it’s easier to see. 🙂
Thank you ☺
I wanted to use what I had on hand, so I added pure vanilla extract. Smelled amazing with the lime zest!
Can i use olive oil instead of coconut oil?
What kind/scent would you recommend for this?
Since it’s a lime sugar scrub, I recommend using lime essential oil. I personally love the way it smells!
What kind/scent of essential oil would you recommend with this?
When making sugar scrub does it matter if I use coconut oil fractionated or not. Just melt it before and combine? What’s the difference in the scrub texture? Thanks.
I’m going to be giving this a try I love a great Sugar scrub!!
Hope you like it. Lime is one of my favorite scents!
How many 8 oz mason jars does the recipe make? I need to make a large amount for a bridal shower.
It makes about a cup, so one 8 oz jar packed pretty full. If you don’t pack it down, you could probably fill one and a half jars with one recipe.
Just curious, does the coconut oil not harden back?
What brand of lime essential oil did you use?…..
I used Young Living brand. I’ve also tried Doterra with good results. I would guess that any high quality, pure essential oil would work. 🙂
I’ve never made a sugar scrub before, but I may need to try, because I love lime!!
This is something I totally want to make. I have all the ingredients- Hoot Hoot! 🙂
Hope you love it as much as I do!!
