Did you know that February is National Grapefruit Month? If you live anywhere that has a bunch of citrus trees, you’ll start to notice all the enormous lemons and oranges hanging on trees … except they aren’t lemons or oranges, they’re grapefruits! So today I’m sharing a grapefruit mint sugar scrub I whipped up as a birthday present and Valentine’s Day present for a couple of friends with some leftover grapefruits I had from my Fizzy Grapefruit Mojito Mocktail. Grapefruit Mint Sugar ScrubI couldn’t believe how easy it was to make this sugar scrub, or how amazing it is to USE a sugar scrub! Luckily this recipe makes enough sugar scrub to fill two small mason jars and half of a third so you can gift two and keep the half to use on yourself! If you’ve never used a sugar scrub before (and I hadn’t), trust me when I say go buy some grapefruit and coconut oil and whip this up in your kitchen tonight! Your skin will thank me!

And you can swap out the mint essential oil for eucalyptus or tea tree oil or anything else you’d rather smell! You can also add in additional grapefruit oil for a stronger grapefruit smell.
And then all you need to do is add a ribbon and a gift tag and you’ve got a quick homemade gift ready for giving!
