Snow Cone Sugar Scrub made with coconut oil and sugar is for perfect for summer! It smells like a snow cone and keeps your skin soft and smooth!
Raise your hand if you have fond memories of eating snow cones as a kid…or maybe you still love eating them. My husband used to have a guy that would ride a bike with a cart through his neighborhood, selling snow cones.
We didn’t have a “snow cone guy,” but we would get snow cones from concession stands and street vendors. I thought it would be fun to make a snow cone sugar scrub for summer with the flavors of snow cone syrup. It smells delicious and makes your skin so soft!
How To Make Snow Cone Sugar Scrub
Step One:
For each color, mix together three tablespoons of fractionated coconut oil and two teaspoons of sweet almond oil.
Step Two:
Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar to each.
Step Three:
Add a couple of drops of flavored oil for scent and a drop or two of food coloring to tint the sugar scrub.
Watermelon oil in the pink sugar scrub, lime oil in the green sugar scrub and raspberry in the blue sugar scrub.
Tilt a small jar (I used Kerr 8 oz jars half pint wide mouth) to the side and spoon in the colored sugar scrub, one layer at a time.
This scrub makes your legs and feet feel amazingly smooth! Just be careful though, because products containing oil can make the shower/tub slippery!

Thanks for sharing! Does it keep long?

Hi Vanessa,
None of the ingredients in the scrub are perishable, so it should last 3-6 months if unopened. But once you start using it, wet hands or moisture from the shower will rapidly decrease the shelf life, so it should be used within a couple of weeks.
