This luxury rose sugar scrub is not your regular DIY skin exfoliant.

It’s a step up, offering a unique blend of natural ingredients and a touch of elegance.

I crafted this scrub using dried rose petals, white sugar, coconut oil, and a few drops of essential oil.

The key to its smooth texture is processing it in a blender, resulting in a finer scrub than typical sugar scrubs.

If you’re often concerned about large sugar granules, this scrub is a game-changer.

As always, I tested the rose sugar scrub before writing this post to provide you with an honest review.

How to make rose sugar scrub

Tools you need

Food Processor or Blender:

A blender or food processor is essential for grinding the rose petals and sugar into smaller particles, helping the ingredients bind better.

This also gives the scrub its beautiful pink color.

Without blending, the petals would just fall off during scrubbing, making a mess.

Mason Jar:

To store your scrub, you’ll need a mason jar with an airtight lid.

It will keep well on the countertop or in the refrigerator.

Spatula and Spoon:

Use a spatula to scrape the sides of the blender and get all the scrub out.

The spoon will help you transfer the finished scrub into the mason jar.

Ingredients for the Rose Scrub

Rose Petals:

Known for hydrating and soothing the skin, blending the petals maximizes their benefits.

Coconut Oil:

I used regular coconut oil, but you can opt for fragrance-free and add essential oil for fragrance.

White Sugar:

White sugar is preferred over brown sugar to achieve the lovely rose-pink color.

Rose Essential Oil:

Adds hydrating and acne-fighting properties.

If you’re cautious about essential oils, use just a few drops for a mild fragrance.

Rose sugar scrub recipe

A few pieces of rose petals (about 1 oz.)
1 cup white sugar
1/8 cup coconut oil
6 to 8 drops of rose essential oil

Directions

Add the rose petals, white sugar, and oils to a food processor or blender.
Blend until everything is well-mixed.
For best results, blend the petals and sugar dry before adding the oils.
Scoop your rose sugar scrub into a mason jar.
Garnish with some crushed rose petals and seal with an airtight lid.
Store it in the fridge or on the countertop until ready to use.

Watch the video tutorial or keep reading for more details. Remember to print a copy of the recipe.

Cleaning up after

To clean your blender, add dish soap and warm water, then blend a few times.

The water will turn blue, and the bubbles will lift the oil off the blender.

Rinse with clean water, and you’re done!

How to use your rose sugar scrub

Use a dry spoon to scoop the scrub into another container to avoid contamination.
After a shower, ensure your skin is damp (not wet) before applying the scrub.
Exfoliate in gentle circular motions.
Be careful, as your bathtub will get slippery.
After several minutes, rinse off under the shower.
Your skin would feel pampered and refreshed.
Pat your skin dry or let it air dry before applying a light moisturizer.

My experience using it

Although I usually avoid oily scrubs in the summer, this one is not overly oily due to the small amount of coconut oil.

It spreads easily, thanks to the fine granules, making exfoliation a breeze.

My skin felt smooth, soft, and lightly scented.

However, the scrub can be messy.

The rose petals may stick to your bathtub, so be prepared to clean up afterward.

Despite this, the rose body scrub is an excellent moisturizing exfoliant.

After using it, I applied a light lotion, and my skin looked and felt even better the next day.

If you prefer less oil in your scrub during the summer, try this Foaming Rose Sugar Scrub.
