DIY Peppermint Sugar Scrub Recipe

Makes 5 cubes (double or triple the recipe to make more)

Supplies Needed:

• I/4 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cube melt & pour soap base (1×1 inch) 
• 15 drops Peppermint fragrance oil 
• 1 drop cherry soap colorant 
• Small round ice cube tray
• Small glass measuring cup or bowl
• Wooden craft stick for stirring

Directions To Make:

1. Put the cube of soap into the measuring cup and microwave on high for about 20-30 seconds. Add the olive oil, sugar and fragrance oil. Stir well. This will thicken up very quickly, so if it is getting thick, place in microwave for an additional 10 seconds.
2. Put a drop of cherry soap colorant in and give just a quick stir. You want to be able to see a marbled effect of colors when this sets.
3. Pour into ice cube tray and let set for about 45 minutes to allow the cubes to completely form.
4. Remove from tray and put in an airtight container.
