DIY Honey Sugar Scrub for Glowing Fall Skin

As the weather cools down and the leaves start to fall, your skin might feel a little... off. Dry. Dull. Maybe even flaky. The change in temperature (and indoor heating) can strip your skin of moisture—leaving you in need of a gentle reset.

Enter: this simple, all-natural Honey Sugar Scrub.
It's hydrating, exfoliating, and smells like a cozy fall afternoon in a jar. 🧖♀️✨

🍂 Why Use a Honey Sugar Scrub in the Fall?

• Honey is a natural humectant—it draws moisture into the skin and helps lock it in. It's also antibacterial, soothing, and gentle enough for sensitive skin.

• Sugar acts as a physical exfoliant to slough off dead skin cells and reveal your natural glow.

• Olive oil or coconut oil adds deep hydration without clogging pores.

• Bonus: Add a touch of cinnamon or vanilla for that warm fall vibe!

🧴 Ingredients

• 1/2 cup organic granulated sugar (white or brown works!)

• 2 tbsp Champlain Valley Apiaries raw honey 

Shop Raw Honey 

• 1 tbsp olive oil or melted coconut oil

• (Optional) 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon or a few drops of vanilla extract

🌿 Sensitive skin tip: Do a patch test before applying any scrub to your face.

🫙 How to Make It

1. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl until well combined. The texture should be thick and gritty, but easy to spread.

2. Spoon into a small glass jar or reusable container.

3. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 weeks (no refrigeration needed if kept sealed).

💆 How to Use

1. Gently wet your skin (face or body).

2. Scoop a small amount of the scrub and massage it onto skin in circular motions.

3. Let it sit for 1–2 minutes if you'd like a "mask" effect.

4. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.

5. Follow with your favorite moisturizer or facial oil.

✨ Use 1–2 times per week for best results.
