This recipe is very easy to make and the chances are that you’ll have all the ingredients already at home. You can swap the brown sugar for white granulated sugar if you wish.

The almond oil can be swapped for coconut oil or other type of sweet oil.

I prefer to use raw honey for my home cosmetics making as it has the most natural ingredients that nourish the skin, but if you have just ordinary honey, you can use it too.
