Sugar scrub too abrasive?

I tried Lush Sugar Scrub and I barely managed
to finish it as it was REALLY harsh to my skin.
After using it my skin was red and irritated.

I probably wouldn't repurchase it
but I got it in a gift box for my birthday lol



I got an idea how to make it work
for my skin. It would break my heart
to throw it away ^_^



I crumbled it into a bowl.



I prepared 2 empty pots,
baby oil and Snow Fairy shower gel.



I added a bit of oil and gel into the bowl
and mixed it well.
Just remember not to make it too watery.



Et voila!

A gentle, moisturising and lovely smelling scrub!

Hope you're all well!
