Blueberry Sugar Body Scrub

There’s something wonderfully indulgent about a sugar body scrub.

I know I always love getting them as gifts… but why not make your own homemade body scrub that you can give as gifts!

In our house we call them “Jenny gifts.”

My mom coined the term a while ago — meaning a gift we all love getting but would rarely buy for ourselves. Aren’t those the best gifts anyway?!?

Today we’re going to make blueberry sugar body scrub.

You can make these any time of the season (they don’t have to be fresh blueberries) because you aren’t going to eat them.

Honestly, my Granny always did say she was happy to have frozen blueberries than no blueberries at all. 🙂 This post contains affiliate links.

    1. You can get the blueberry right in the freezer section of your grocery store. Just look in the frozen fruit section. 🙂

  1. This looks so different from every sugar scrub I’ve made before! I’ve never thought of freeze dried fruit in my sugar scrubs! 🙂 Love it!

  2. how long will it last for?

  3. Hi Jenny,
    Love this idea but does the blueberries stain the skin ?
    Thank you

    1. Really the only stain is when you’re making it… you may want to wear gloves but I’ve never had a problem with the final product.

  4. I bet that smells delicious! Using natural foods and foods for skin health and cleansing is so interesting to me, it feels more… effective. And I really like scrubs. I think I made a brown sugar scrub once. Anyway, this looks much yummier!

  5. Oh wow, I love the colour if this scrub, it’s so vibrant! This would make for a great gift 🙂

    Thanks for sharing at the Friday Favorites linky party. I hope you come back this week so I can stop by again!

  6. how will the blueberries hold up? I’ve got plenty in the freezer but did not want the scrub to go bad with the berrys

  7. How long does this scrub last for? Does it need to be kept in the fridge?

  8. Where do you get the blue sugar sprinkles

  9. Hi, Jenny.
    I really love this scrub.
    I have not seen this method before.
    I usually make mine with very few ingredients. Maybe two ingredients…
    But the frozen blueberries just blew me away.
    Thanks for this awesome scrub recipe.

  10. Love the idea of the scrub.How long will it last? I make certain mask with natural products and within a week or 2 its grows mold. Will this recipe do the same thing?
