Emulsified Sugar Scrub Recipe

This emulsified sugar scrub will leave your skin feeling silky smooth without leaving behind an oily residue. The emulsifier creates a homogeneous scrub that prevents the oils from pooling at the top of your container. Personally, I prefer an emulsified scrub to one that is not emulsified because when it mixes with water, it creates a lotion like feeling making it easier to exfoliate.
