Mother’s Day is coming up right around the corner, on Sunday May 10th, 2015. As a busy mom of two little boys, it is a special day that I am really looking forward to, to celebrate Motherhood.

Do you have a special mom in your life that would really enjoy being able to indulge in some serious relaxation? This super simple DIY Chocolatey Cocoa Sugar Scrub would be the perfect gift for her!

Chocolatey Cocoa Sugar Scrub Recipe

To make this simple, yet irresistible Cocoa Sugar Scrub here’s what you’ll need:

INGREDIENTS:

- 1/2 cup cocoa powder

- 1 cup sugar

- 1 tablespoon coconut oil

- 1 cup carrier oil (such as jojoba, almond, or olive oil)

- 1 teaspoon honey



INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Pour cocoa powder and sugar into a large bowl. 2. Heat coconut oil until it’s in a liquid form and add into the bowl. 3. Add in honey and your choice of oil (I used jojoba). 4. Mix well and pour into a container. FYI tip – this recipe fits perfectly into a pint sized jar.
