Watermelon Sugar Scrub Recipe With Free Printable Labels

I must confess I LOVE anything and everything watermelon.

And so naturally, I had to make a watermelon themed sugar scrub, because why the heck not? Especially if you have some watermelon juice sitting around, you best bet I tried my hand at creating a scrub.

Now, if you’re making a watermelon sugar scrub you want to make sure you make it with honey (the best honey you can find) and NOT coconut oil.

Why?

Well, even though I LOVE coconut oil for so many things (including sugar scrubs) I tend to lean towards creating honey based sugar scrubs, and that’s because sometimes, when you want to create sugar scrubs that smell like their flavor, and you use coconut oil, the smell is too overpowering.

Don’t get me wrong. Coconut oil can be great as part of a sugar scrub if you don’t mind your whole scrub smelling mostly like coconut oil.

When you make your sugar scrubs with honey, the sweet smell only adds to the flavor you’re trying to make your scrub in. I remember I couldn’t believe how sweet my strawberry sugar scrub smelled when I made it with honey.

It was such a nice and sweet candy-like strawberry smell and without having to add any fragrances. I think the mix of natural fruit ingredients along with the sugar and honey just makes for an all-around good combination that smells amazing!
