Have you ever thought about making your own beauty products? Be it for yourself or someone you know? Well, perhaps I have the perfect starting point for you – a DIY face scrub.
This great cucumber melon homemade facial scrub allows you to make your own scrub from ingredients you may well have around the home already.
There are lots of different ways to make a DIY facial scrub, including using coffee grounds and brown sugar. But this one is just perfect for beginners, such as myself, to start with.
Sugar face scrubs are perhaps the perfect skin-pampering product. As this Cucumber Melon homemade Sugar Scrub is a great way to help get rid of dead skin cells, alongside polishing and brightening.
Making the skin both look and feel fantastic. After all, isn’t that what we all want for our skin?
Of course, we all need to make sure we use a good exfoliate and moisturise across the year, to help keep our skin in good condition!
This scrub can be used two or three times a week, by rubbing in circular motions on your skin.
It is suitable for all skin types including dry skin and oily skin and you can also use it all over as a body scrub. Just remember to be careful if you have sensitive skin – always patch test, no matter what.
As well as being a must-have product for your own bathroom – it is also a great idea for a gift.
No matter if you are looking for the perfect birthday present, stocking filler or something to pop in a basket, Whatever the occasion is coming up, and much more thoughtful than a store-bought product.
So how do you make it?
Here’s my sugar scrub recipe.
Materials for your DIY face scrub:
- 2 cups Epsom Salts (or two cups of sugar)
- 1⁄2 cup cucumber melon scented body wash
- Wide mouth funnel
- Jars with lids
- Avery 5294 labels or similar
Directions:
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the sugar and body wash, until well combined.
- Use the funnel to transfer the mixture to jars.
- This makes (2) 8oz jars. I personally recommend using plastic jars as this is used in the shower but you could use glass jars or mason jars if you’re making it for a present as they look a bit more up-market.
- Screw lids on tightly.
Finishing Touches:
Download and print the labels.

This looks great. Me and my daughter have made a basic face make with just a mashed up avocado before. But these look much better than our mush turned out!
This looks fab – i love stuff like this – so natural!
I didn’t know it was so easy, thanks for the recipe!
Your welcome I hope you enjoy making it!
sounds fab
Hi,
Thanks for the recipe!
We’ve been making this and giving it out to friends and family as a way to get rid of the overwhelming amount of mint in our backyard. Everyone’s loved it!
Aw that is amazing! I am so pleased people are loving it. x
This looks like an easy to make DIY scrub. I have been thinking of making a scrub of my own but I don’t know what and how to start. I’ll probably save this up, maybe I can make one in the future. Thanks!
Good luck if you give it a try – it really is a simple starting place for people wanting to give it a try. x
ooooh this looks and sounds amazing. Brilliant DIY, this will be the perfect gift for my mum on a budget. Might be cool to surprise her with a random gift once in a while
Yes, tried some and they were pretty effective. Now, i dont do anymore as i find it more convenient buying than making my own. This week as we donour grocery, might as well buy a few mayonaise for my hair.
We tried our hand at sugar scrubs this summer and they turned out great. Love this “flavor” combination and what it could do for my skin. Definitely trying this one out next!
I love cucumber melon! I bet this smells unbelievable!
This is a great DIY scrub! I can see my girlfriend using this all the time so thanks for sharing
I have never thought about making my own scrub but I do have 1 KG of Epsom Salt lol so it would be a great way of using it.
Yes! Go on give it a try – I would love to know how you do 🙂 x
I love everything homemade! This looks amazing and refreshing!
I could really use getting rid of some dead skin cells and brightening up my skin. This looks great!
I need to do the same – this sudden heat wave has really done my skin in. x
Homemade scrubs are definitely some of my favorites. I have never heard of this one before so I will be giving it a shot.
Ohh good luck! I really hope you manage to give it a whirl and love it! x
It looks very easy to make and also the look of the jar looks absolutely amazing! I would even buy something like that if it would be sold somewhere.
