Homemade Sugar Scrub + Tips for 4th of July Smooth Legs
My in-laws celebrate their 52nd wedding anniversary this 4th of July. We always enjoy heading to their house for a big holiday bash! A pool party, the smell of fresh grilled food and great reminiscing of the olden days greet us every year. The night always ends with a spectacular fireworks show on the beach. A great party like this deserves 4th of July smooth legs!
I’ve got 3 easy tips for confidence building smooth legs this summer holiday season, including an all-natural sugar scrub.
Exfoliate
Did you know that exfoliating before shaving gets you an even closer shave? Inspired by the upcoming holiday, I created this homemade all-natural SPARKLER sugar scrub! Perfect for a hostess gift or to use for yourself, I love the natural colors and sparkly
Homemade All-Natural SPARKLER Sugar Scrub
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of white sugar, divided
- 3/4 coconut oil, divided
- 4 TSP lime juice, divided
- 2 TSBP pureed strawberries
- 2 TBSP pureed blueberries
- 1 mason jar, 2 cup size
Directions:
- Combine 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup coconut oil, 1 tsp. lime juice and pureed blueberries in small bowl. Add to bottom of mason jar, spreading evenly. This is your “blue” layer.
- Combine 1 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of coconut oil and 2 tsp. of lime juice in another small bowl. Spread evenly on top of the blueberry layer. This is your “white.”
- Combine the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of coconut oil, 1 tsp. of lime juice, and 2 TBSP of strawberries in a small bowl. Add to top layer of the mason jar.
Makes 2 cups. Store in air tight container in refrigerator up to 1-2 weeks.

That scrub looks so pretty and it sounds great to help the winter dryness. It’d be fun to make for a girls night in.
Amanda says
I love sugar scrubs and yours is so pretty! I’d love to try it!
Janeane Davis says
This scrub is really easy to make. The only problem is that people won’t know whether to use it as a scrub or to eat it up!
Sara Merritt says
Christie, you are such a clever mama! I love the sugar scrub and how you used all natural ingredients. Now that we live in Florida, too, I really need to invest in a better razor. I think I’ll go try this one out. 🙂 #client
