To make your homemade body exfoliator all you need is
1 cup sugar
4 table spoon olive oil
2 table spoon vanilla extract
This works great to exfoliate your body and to remove dead skin. It leaves your face and body feeling extra smooth and its extremely easy to make at home. Please try and let me know what you think!

I'm hesitant about putting oils on my face as I am prone to breakouts but I will definitely give this a try on my body.

yeah, the first time i tired was on my face, and the oil was very easy to wash off and it left my skin feeling extra smooth

Is the vanilla just for scent?

I use olive oil and sugar to exfoliate my lips and if I dont wash off the oil really well i will wake up the next day broken out around my lips (and we all know what people will assume about that). I can only imagine slathering this stuff all over my face. lol. Thats cool if it works for you though :)

Btw, is it ok to store some in a bottle it for later?

Melissa S.

yeah i actually stored the rest of my in a plastic zip bloc, because it would be annoying to mix a batch every time you would want to use it. make sure its not exposed to any air because it gets really hard

Does it have to be olive oil? can vegetable oil work as well?
