Have I told you all that I love making shower favors? I love coming up with fun and practical shower favors so when my friend told me she was hosting a baby shower this weekend, I had to help her make them.
I’ve loved seeing all the homemade beauty products throughout blogland so I immediately told her we had to make body scrub.
After looking around at different recipes online, we actually ended up keeping it very simple. There really are so many to choose from but we needed to keep it cheap and easy.
After mixing up a few sample batches using different ingredients, this is what we came up with:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups epson salt
- 3 tablespoons baby oil
- 8-10 drops of essential oil – We used tropical from Michaels and it smells so good!
- Jars
- Food coloring (optional)
Directions:
- Mix everything together in a bowl and fill the jars. Quick and easy!!
- We added blue food coloring because her friend is having a boy (I’m sure you guessed that).
We wanted a cute poem to go along with the body scrub that reminded the mother-to-be and guests to pamper themselves. This is what I came up with:
If you need a quick, easy and inexpensive shower favor and/or gift idea, you have to make this body scrub. We got all of our supplies at Walmart and Michaels for less than $20.
Oh my goodness this is too cute! I will so gave to copy your idea. I am bookmarking this post for future reference!
Such a cute idea! I love the poem that you made to go with it! So sweet!

these look so good. I think I’m going to be doing this very soon. What a treat for summer feet! And, by the way, my name is Kara also. With a K! there are not so many of us although it is becoming more popular with babies now. When I was growing up I was the only Kara that I ever heard of.
Kara, such a beautiful handmade favor. The best shower favors are the ones like yours that are done with love, creativity, style and generosity!
Thank you so much for being a part of “A Little Birdie Told Me…” at Rook No. 17!

I used 4 oz canning jars from Walmart. So glad you like them!
These are perfect. Now where will I find these jars that will not cost me 20 dollars
Love this idea! What type of food coloring did you use? Regular blue liquid drops?
