It is no secret that I love sugar scrubs! They are wonderful for exfoliating the skin and keeping it smooth. One of my very favorites is this Lavender Sugar Hand Scrub! The smell is pure Heaven! I can get lost in the scent alone! Oh, and did I mention you can make it yourself for a little of nothing! Yep, no need to pay high dollars from a specialty shop when you can whip up your own in a matter of minutes. Along with the Peppermint Sugar Scrub (another favorite) I told you about the other day, these make perfect gifts as a treat for family and friends!
