This Vanilla Pumpkin Pie Spice Sugar Scrub is made with vanilla, brown sugar, coconut oil and pumpkin pie spice. Easy to make and the perfect gift!
Hello, Ideas for the Home by Kenarry® friends! I’m Pam from The Birch Cottage and I’m back again this month to share this quick and easy Vanilla Pumpkin Pie Spice Sugar Scrub with you.
Last year for Christmas I made a DIY Sugar Scrub that I gifted to family and friends. My DIY Sugar Scrub was made using Dawn Hand Renewal with Olay Dish Soap and Sugar. It was easy to make and it works really well. It’s often times referred to as “gardener’s scrub” because it cleans, exfoliates and softens all at the same time.
It’s one of those gifts that is great for just about any occasion and there’s even a scent for everyone on your list. Since the Dawn sugar scrub was such a big hit last year as a DIY homemade Christmas gift idea, I thought I’d share this Vanilla Pumpkin Pie Spice Sugar Scrub with you this year.
This Vanilla Pumpkin Pie Spice Sugar Scrub is made with brown sugar, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice and coconut oil. The brown sugar is a great little exfoliator, while the coconut oil serves as the natural moisturizer and the vanilla and pumpkin pie spice simply make the sugar scrub smell like autumn in a jar.
Pumpkin spice everything!
This Vanilla Pumpkin Pie Spice Sugar Scrub would make the perfect hostess gift for Thanksgiving or the perfect Christmas present for just about anyone on your list. And, did I mention that it’s super easy to make?

Vanilla Pumpkin Pie Spice Sugar Scrub
Ingredients:
1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
¼ cup coconut oil, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla
Instructions:
Are you ready for these instructions? I mean, you better pay close attention. Here goes! Mix all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until well blended (like 10 seconds).
To break it down a little more for you, I started by pouring 1 cup brown sugar in a mixing bowl. I then added the 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice and blended together.
Then I mixed in the 2 teaspoons of vanilla. {If you’d like to learn how to make homemade vanilla, you can read my tutorial here!}
Next, add in the 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil and mix together.
Then pour into an 8 oz jar or container. Done!
Really. It’s that simple!

Once you have the lid securely on, simply tie some twine or ribbon around the jar.

I was wondering how far in advance can you make this and how long will it keep?
Melissa, you can make this sugar scrub as far in advance as you’d like as the scrub has a shelf life of about one year.
doesn’t the brown sugar get hard. I made some last year with brown sugar and it became hard as a rock.
Debi, I’ve made a few batches and “most” of the time it didn’t get hard. But it is subject to getting hard if you get any water in the scrub. I usually make smaller batches of the brown sugar scrub for this very reason. It’s also helpful to use a spoon to scoop out the scrub and keep moisture away. Hope this helps. By the way, if you’re gifting the scrub, those little wooden ice cream spoons are perfect for the scrub!
thank you!
