Body scrubs are an excellent way to moisturize your skin and pamper yourself. They also make a great inexpensive gift. So today I’m sharing this super easy to make pomegranate body scrub along with printable labels. Enjoy!
Ingredients for DIY Pomegranate Body Scrub
1 C. Coconut Oil
½ C. Sugar
½ Package of pomegranate seeds (found in the produce section)
4-5 (4 oz.) Jelly jars
Instructions
1. Using a blender puree ½ the package of pomegranate seeds (mixture will be chunky). This will give you enough juice for the nice pink color as well and the pomegranate particles to add to your scrub.
2. In a medium-size bowl, combine the coconut oil, sugar, pomegranate puree and mix well.
3. Add the scrub to your 4 oz. jelly jars.
4. Print and cut out the labels and place on the lid; the metal ring will hold the label in place. **For a more rustic look, you could also use a hole puncher to punch a hole in the top of the label – loop through with twine and tie around the lid.
*Makes 4-5 4 oz. Jelly jars. The recipe can also be made smaller or larger depending on how much you would like to make.

Hi Jesenia, Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, it sounds wonderful!! I can’t wait to try it!! However
I do have a question, do you know how long of a shelf life this body scrub has?
Hi Jamie! I’ve heard up to 12 months at room temperature. However, I’ve never made an amount large enough to last that long so I wouldn’t personally know for sure. Hope that helps a little bit!
What would the weight of packaged seeds be so I can calculate how many fruit.?
I can’t buy a Package of pomegranate seeds in my supermarket. Can I use fresh seeds straight from the fruit?
Hi Ruth! I’m pretty sure you will be fine using fresh seeds. 🙂
Does this have to be refrigerated?
Hi Cassie! No it does not. If your home is very warm during the summer months you may want to consider placing it in the fridge since the coconut oil could turn into liquid. However, it’s unusual unless your home is very warm.
Oh, I am pinning this!
