1 cup coconut oil
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoon grapefruit zest

Tips on Grapefruit Body Scrub
- This scrub is not for use on your face. Use from your shoulders, down. 🙂
- Because of the oil in the citrus zest, this scrub will last up to 1 month before those oils will start to change their scent.
- Any citrus zest can be swapped for the grapefruit zest.
- Be sure your citrus zest is fresh for the recipe. Grapefruit zest you've been storing in your freezer doesn't work well here.
Give it as a Gift
- Grapefruit Body Scrub is such a fun and easy gift to give. I love packaging it in cute, little jars to make it feel extra special.

Ooh. This looks awesome. I have tried it with lemon, but not yet with grapefruit, and I LOVE the smell of grapefruit. Thanks for the great idea!
