There’s nothing better to pamper your feet than a homemade foot scrub. Scrubbing your feet is not only a good way to exfoliate dead skin; it’s also a nice way to relax tired tootsies.
I love experimenting with natural beauty treatments, so I rummaged my cabinets for ingredients to make my own homemade foot scrub. With three natural oils, this scrub leaves my feet feeling soft and hydrated, with the subtle lingering scent of almond.
Since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, I’ve whipped a few extra batches of my signature coconut almond homemade foot scrub and packaged it for the holiday.
Supplies Needed:
Granulated sugar
Jojoba oil
Organic Coconut oil (melted)
Almond oil
Almond extract
Red food coloring
Storage container
Measuring spoons
Mixing bowl (not pictured)
Spatula (not pictured)
Homemade Foot Scrub Directions:
1. Take the following ingredients and place them in a mixing bowl:
1 Cup of granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons of jojoba oil
1 Tablespoon of almond oil
3 Tablespoons of coconut oil (melted)
1 Teaspoon of almond extract
2 Drops of red food coloring (optional)
Note: this will make about a 1½ cups of foot scrub. You may alter the portions to fit your needs and the size of your container.
2. Using the spatula, evenly mix all of the ingredients in the bowl.
3. Pour the foot scrub mix into a storage container.
4. Optional: If you are making the homemade foot scrub as a gift, decorate your jar using stickers, baker’s twine, and decorative tags.
This scrub is ideal for feet, but if you would like to make a scrub your body, check out my DIY brown sugar body scrub. For your face, take a look at my DIY lavender vanilla facial scrub. Happy scrubbing!
