Ingredients Needed

• Granulated Sugar
• Vegetable Glycerine
• Coconut Oil
• Aloe Vera Carrier Oil
• Oil-soluble Color Powder
• Vitamin E
• Strawberry Fragrance Oil

Notes on Ingredients

Choose high-quality ingredients to boost the effectiveness and safety of your DIY beauty products.

When an essential oil is included, I use either concentrated or diluted essential oils. If using concentrated essential oils, use up to 0.5% by weight to ensure safety for all skin types. To use diluted essential oils, mix 1 gram (0.035 oz) of concentrated essential oil with 100 grams (3.5 oz) of sweet almond oil or jojoba oil.

If a recipe calls for fragrance oil, you can use diluted essential oil instead to benefit from both its scent and therapeutic effects. This provides a natural alternative to synthetic fragrance oils and offers additional benefits.

Tools Needed

• Scale to weigh quantities
• Large bowl
• Small whisk
• Small cup or container
• Container to store your DIY Strawberry Scented Body Scrub

Prior to use, ensure that both your utensils and containers are properly cleaned and disinfected. Wash them with warm soapy water, dry with a tissue, and then sanitize by spraying with 70% medical alcohol. Wipe them clean and let them air dry before use.

Steps: DIY Strawberry Scented Body Scrub

1- Start by putting 150 grams (5.29 oz) of foaming bath butter in a large bowl.

2- Add 25 grams (0.88 oz) of vegetable glycerine.

3- Add 4 grams (0.14 oz) of coconut oil. If the coconut oil is semi-solid due to cold temperature, melt it in a bain-marie (hot water bath). A bain-marie is made by placing the bowl containing the semi-solid coconut oil in a larger pot of hot, steaming water. This will gradually heat and melt the oil. Stir while the oil is melting.

4- Add 15 grams (0.53 oz) of aloe vera carrier oil.

5- Mix thoroughly with a small whisk.

6- Add 5 drops of vitamin E.

7- Add 6 grams (0.21 oz) of strawberry fragrance oil.

8- Mix thoroughly.

9- In a separate small container, dissolve 2 grams (0.07 oz) of pink oily color powder in 10 grams (0.35 oz) of aloe vera carrier oil to prepare the color mixture.

10- Gradually pour the color mixture into the large bowl containing the main ingredients. Adjust the amount according to your desired color intensity for the scrub.

11- Mix the color thoroughly.

12- Add 150 grams (5.29 oz) of granulated sugar. Add the amount gradually to make it easier to mix the sugar evenly.

13- Mix thoroughly the sugar with the other ingredients.

14- After the sugar has been well mixed, scoop the scrub into a small container.

15- Your DIY Strawberry Scented Body Scrub is now done!

How To Use: DIY Strawberry Scented Body Scrub

To make the most of your Barbie-Inspired DIY Strawberry Scented Body Scrub for radiant skin, follow these steps:

a. Wet Your Skin: Start with damp skin in the shower or bath.

b. Apply the Scrub: Take a generous amount of the scrub and apply it to your skin. The foaming action will create a soapy lather. Avoid introducing water into the scrub container to maintain its freshness and longevity.

c. Choose Your Method:
— By Hand: If you prefer a gentle exfoliation, use your hands. Massage the scrub into your skin with gentle circular motions.
— With a Loofah: For a slightly deeper exfoliation, apply the scrub to a wet loofah and use it to massage your skin. The loofah’s texture will enhance the scrubbing effect.

d. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse off the scrub thoroughly with warm water, ensuring no residue is left behind.

e. Pat Dry: After rinsing, pat your skin dry with a clean towel.

f. Moisturize: Finish your routine by applying your favorite moisturizer to lock in the goodness.

You can enjoy this spa-like experience up to three times a week to maintain that radiant Barbie-inspired glow, whether you choose to scrub by hand or with a loofah. Happy pampering!
