Sassy sugar scrub

Inspired by my favorite lip balm: C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve, I wanted to create something just as sweet for my hands.

What you'll need:

1/8 cup of extra virgin olive oil

2/3 cup granulated white sugar

10-12 drops of fragrance

8-10 drops of vitamin E oil

5oz leak-proof jar

red food coloring

decorative rose

ribbon

Where to shop:

Grocery store: olive oil, sugar, food coloring

Hobby Lobby: Crafty Candle Fragrance

Something Fabulous fragrance, 

Vitamin E oil, ribbon, flower accessory

Sally's Beauty Supply: 5oz jar

Mix your ingredients in a bowl separate from your jar. Add more fragrance if olive oil is too overpowering. Add red food coloring so the color matches the scent. 

Spoon ingredients in the jar.

Perfect for a homemade gift, beauty night, or just to simply treat yourself.

Enjoy.

Until next time,

Sassy Sunday

    Sweet and solemn Sunday

Finding comfort in a beaded-feathered turquoise dreamcatcher. Berry, cider, and apple scented candles. New Mexican handmade soap. 

Today, I caught up on some much needed rest. Made a protein inspired breakfast. Cleaned my humble apartment. Experimented with some makeup for a more sultry look for November. Turned pages in a book rather than flipping though TV channels. 

Being a homebody can sometimes be quite productive. I'm actually looking forward to more nights in, layered clothing, hot chocolate, and homemade soup. 

There are two more months left this year. I plan to discover what I can cross off the bucket-list, re-vamp my resolution list, and rekindle some old friendships.
