Sweet Tidings 4th Day of Christmas: Gingerbread Body Scrub

by - Thursday, November 25, 2010



Amidst all the flurry and hurry of the holiday season, take time to unwind and pamper yourself with some delicious  body scrub recipe to slough  off dead skin cells and stress! This yummy recipe is from eHow and I can personally vouch that's its divinely good as it smells so festive and my skin feels smooth and refreshed afterwards.

Gingerbread Body Scrub Recipe 

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp freshly grated ginger root or 1 tablespoon ground ginger (fresh is best)
  • 1 tsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Mixing bowl
  • Wooden spoon
  • Small glass jar 

Mix all ingredients together in a mixing bowl and combine using a wooden spoon. Store in a glass jar for later use.

Make several batches of this yummy body scrub to give away to your crafting buddies in case you plan to throw a retro paper doll party or any of the fabulous ideas from Craft-In.

You can package your gingerbread body scrub party favor in an  inexpensive salt/ pepper/flour shaker  sealed with plastic wrap. Add a mini gingerbread boy cookie cutter  to go!
