This Lemon and Peppermint Scrub is one of my favorites.  The cooling sensation of the peppermint oil helps to soothe while the lemon is so invigorating.

How Long will My Scrub Last?

Your scrub should last several months and up to a year as long as you keep it in a cool dark place. So you can get ahead and make these as gifts a month in advance!
It’s once you open the jar and put your hands inside and possibly get a little water mixed in, it will lessen the shelf life. Once opened the best way to extend the shelf life is to always use a clean, dry spoon to scoop the scrub.

    1. It should last several months and up to a year as long as you keep it in a cool dark place. It’s once you open it and then put your hands inside and possibly get a little water mixed inside they last up 2 months. Once opened the best way to extend the shelf life is to always use a clean, dry spoon to scoop the scrub. Hope that helps!

  2. Made these for my sisters in church for Mother’s Day. The smell is beyond amazing!! Got SO many compliments!
