Is it just me or does it seem that you rarely see honeysuckle bushes around anymore? As kids we used to love pulling the stems out of the flower and tasting the honey. Soo yummy! Well, since it’s spring (finally) and my poor hands have taken a beating from this harsh winter weather I decided that a batch of Honeysuckle Sugar Scrub was in order. And oh boy, it smells so good!
The recipe is so simple. 4 ingredients is all it takes. Make some for yourself or give some as a gift. Either way you’ll be happy you whipped it up!

Take a cup of sugar and pour it into a bowl. Measure out a half a cup of coconut oil and stir into sugar. To get a nice orange-y color, mix 10 drops of yellow and one drop of red and stir until it’s mixed throughout. Add about 10 drops of fragrance oil and stir as well.
Transfer your honeysuckle sugar scrub into a jar and if you’re giving it as a gift, I have some cute labels for you! Click image below to download.
Can I add fresh honeysuckle flowers? Or will it give a rotten smell when the flowers break down?
