Looking for an easy DIY green tea sugar scrub you can make at home? This simple homemade body scrub uses natural ingredients to gently exfoliate and leave your skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed.
DIY scrubs are not only easy on the wallet, they also give you full control over what you put on your skin. This green tea scrub is made with just a few ingredients you may already have at home, making it a simple, mindful addition to your self-care routine.
DIY Green Tea Sugar Scrub Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp dried organic green tea leaves (2–4 tea bags)
- 1 cup organic sugar (brown, natural, or coconut sugar will all work)
- ½ cup organic olive oil
- 2 Tbsp raw honey
- 10 drops lavender essential oil
Tip: Coconut sugar gives a slightly coarser texture, while white or brown sugar creates a softer, more gentle scrub. We recommend using organic ingredients whenever possible for a more natural and skin-friendly scrub.
How to Make a Green Tea Sugar Scrub
- Combine all ingredients in a medium-sized bowl.
- Mix until evenly blended.
- Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
How to Use Your DIY Body Scrub
Apply a tablespoon of scrub at a time to damp skin. Gently massage in circular motions for about 30 seconds, then rinse with warm water and a washcloth.
Tip: Be careful in the shower, as the olive oil can make surfaces slippery.
Benefits of Green Tea Sugar Scrub
Green tea is known for its antioxidant properties, which can help calm the skin and reduce the appearance of redness. Brown sugar gently exfoliates, removing dead skin cells and leaving skin feeling smooth.
Olive oil deeply moisturizes without clogging pores, while honey helps hydrate and soothe. Together, these ingredients create a simple, effective DIY body scrub that supports healthy, glowing skin.
How to Store Your Homemade Scrub
Store your green tea sugar scrub in an airtight jar in a cool, dry place. For best results, use within a few weeks. Using a glass jar or recycled container is a simple way to reduce waste.
