Christmas is almost upon us and, if you haven't quite done your shopping yet - don't panic. We have just the idea for you!

Homemade gifts are always extra special and thoughtful and this gingerbread sugar scrub is sure to put a smile on some faces this Christmas!

We first saw this idea over on Mommymusings blog and we fell in love with its simplicity and, well, its cuteness! Who wouldnt love to find this in their stocking, all festive and adorable?!

 All you need to make your very own gingerbread sugar scrub is

* 1 cup of sugar

* 1 cup brown sugar

* 1/2 cup coconut oil

*1/4 cup almond oil

*1/2 tsp vanilla extract

*1/2 tsp cinnamon

*1/2 tsp all spice

*1/2 tsp ginger

*1/2 tsp nutmeg

*Jar with lid

* Start by combining your sugars, spices and Vanilla extract together in a large bowl.

* You can then gradually add in the oils until you are happy with the consistency of your scrub. You could add more or less of the oils if you prefer!

* Next, you can simply fill your jar with your gorgeous smelling scrub!

* To decorate the jar you can print off these cute labels and adorn the neck with a cute festive bow - Christmas perfection!

You can see just how easy it is to create your own, at-home beauty treat and you will love seeing your recipients face light up knowing they have something that was personally made and not on the shelves of the highstreet!
