    Simply piece the cap and squeeze it into the oil.

    If you do this, however, make sure you let the scrub soak on your skin for a few minutes before rinsing it off. , Now, add in 2 tablespoons of honey.

    Any kind will do, but the thicker the honey is, the better. , Pour in 1/2 cup of real sugar.
