Holiday Teacher Gifts: Vanilla Chai Sugar Scrub

Posted: December 10, 2012 | Author: | Filed under: Holidays |15 Comments

I have become slightly obsessed with sugar scrubs lately. I had no idea how simple they are to make and how FABULOUS they are for your skin. I LOVE all of the teachers the boys have this year. Every single one. While I still plan to add something of the gift card or wine variety, the boys I made a vanilla chai sugar scrub for each of their teachers:

So so so easy. Mix dry ingredients. Add vanilla, honey, and oil. Stir. Jar. Done.

There are a multitude of recipes out there, I altered the one I found on Pinterest to be a little bit more aromatic:

VANILLA CHAI SUGAR SCRUB

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup granulated sugar (or turbinado raw sugar)

1 cup + 1T oil (I used grapeseed oil)

6 to 10 chai tea bags, opened and added into dry ingredients

1 tsp honey

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp cinnamon

20-ish drops cinnamon essential oil

      I made two batches but had a ton left over. I can’t remember exactly, but I am pretty sure one batch made about four jars.

    When you say vanilla, do you mean Vanilla extract?

    so I just got some of this as a gift, and wondered if you leave it on your skin for an amount of time or not. Thx!
