Now that you're eating right, here's a great way to use up that spare sugar in your pantry — make a batch of sugar body scrub! It's easy! Simply combine 1 cup of cane sugar, 1/2 cup of almond or grape seed oil, and 15 drops of the essential oil of your choice (or skip the fragrance altogether, if you prefer unscented products). Be sure to store the scrub in an airtight container.

To use the scrub, just scoop up a small amount and gently massage it into your skin for a few seconds in the bath or shower. Massage longer on rough spots, such as heels, elbows, and knees, and then rinse with warm water. Try to avoid using the sugar scrub on irritated skin, including cuts, rashes, or a sunburn. You don't want to make it worse!

The scrub should leave your skin feeling silky smooth, since it whisks away dead skin cells! It's also a great way to exfoliate and prepare your skin for additional treatments, like self-tanners. If you have dry skin, follow the scrub treatment with an application of body oil or lotion to lock in extra moisture. Sleek, sexy, and sweet!
