This seems so simple! I wish that I had thought of it!

Love this! Has anyone tried adding olive oil and vaseline? Do they mix well? I love OO and think I'd love to use it, but I love the idea of the vas. too! :)

By Krystal on 11/13/2009 7:59:30 PM

I use Bath & Body Works massage oil from the Aromatherapy line, mix with sugar, and the result is a scrub that smells GREAT!  I never thought about Vaseline though...the thicker mixture sounds like a good idea for the feet.

If you want an easy, inexpensive gift mix sugar with the Bath and Body Works lotion of your preference then put it in a cute container--I gave it to friends in a basket with some aloe socks for Christmas last year. Love the "Peppermint Twist" holiday lotion.  1 bottle mixed with almost 5 pounds of sugar for plenty of gifts!

Will try this, I need it! THANKS!

Now that's fantastic. i have rough patches on the bottom of my feet and that should help. I am going to try that real soon. Now I can stop spending so much money on products that don't work.

does this reall work?I'll have to try it thanks

I do the sugar thing for the hands ... once a week. Except for these changes.  1 teaspoon sugar, 1 small squirt of antibacterial hand cleanser no water (yet) rub hands together until sugar is dissolved. Rinse then while hands are still damp  a dab of vaseline. Make sure you rub into your cuticles to loosen and remove them.

Great idea!!

Great Idea! Thanks :)

By Diane on 11/5/2009 10:12:29 AM

 cool, never thought about that.. I'm going to try that tonight..

By Vel on 11/4/2009 5:50:49 PM

Oh boy, that sounds wonderful!  I have used vaseline forever.  It does soften the skin.  I am convinced it prevents wrinkles, just as co co butter does.

By Nici on 11/4/2009 2:23:53 PM

love the idea will try it tonight!

By Grace on 11/4/2009 9:06:45 AM

I will need to try this.  I love a good sugar scrub. Especially on my elbows and feet to get the rough places smooth.

By Nadine on 11/3/2009 10:32:01 PM

This does sound like a cheap & easy foot scrub.I'm going to give it a try & see if i like it too.

By Sandy on 11/3/2009 8:05:04 PM

I do this also.  My daughter always steals my shaving gel and conditioner works very well and is usually cheaper than shave gels and creams.

By patricia on 11/3/2009 4:30:36 PM

Great idea for a convenient home foot spa!

By Jenni on 11/3/2009 3:45:26 PM

I cannot wait to try this!! Thanks for the idea!

By Melissa on 11/3/2009 3:13:05 PM

this sound great i will try it this weeken thanks for the receipe :)

By Lisa on 11/3/2009 2:34:44 PM

thanks for the great idea, this sounds like a wonderful mini-spa experience that I can fit in to my schedule :)

By Laurie on 11/2/2009 11:25:49 PM

another good one is olive oil with sugar or salt.  adding peppermint or vanilla (like extracts from McCormick or such) is an easy way to get the complete spa experience.

By April on 11/2/2009 7:28:12 PM

aewsome!!!

By Joni on 11/2/2009 3:26:31 PM

you can use sugar as a face scrub too -- great when traveling, use a packet and gently massage on damp skin -- the sugar dissolves with the use of additional water, preventing the overuse error...  you can do the same with salt as a body scrub, takes longer to dissolve so not recommended for face.

By Traci on 11/2/2009 3:13:24 PM

I love the foot scrubs! After the scrub and lotion put on socks that are warmed up for super hydration!

By Kimberlie on 11/2/2009 2:28:50 PM

Thanks for this great tip! Can't wait to try it and stop spending money on the expensivre useless products!

By Nicole on 11/2/2009 11:30:59 AM

This awesome I can't wait to try it!!!

By C on 11/2/2009 11:16:19 AM

By Sharon on 11/2/2009 11:00:33 AM

This sounds great.Thanks

By Barbara on 11/2/2009 10:59:08 AM

When you store a pre-made sugar based scrub, be sure to wipe clean the container.  Ants were attracted to the mixture but then again it was the summer when ants are more visiable and hungry!!!!

By MINDY on 11/2/2009 12:33:10 AM

Great idea.  Now I can stop spending so much on those pricy foot scrubs.  I never thought about vaseline...
