Are you struggling to come up with something nice to give your mom or grandma for Mother’s Day?

I have a solution if you want to give a sweet gift but you are:

a. limited on money

b. limited on time

c. limited on creativity

d. limited on crafting ability (everything you try to make looks obviously homemade, but not in a good way – with this recipe, you can still have success at creating something!)

e. remedial at gift planning (I know some perfectly thoughtful folks who always give the best gifts. I don’t have this talent.)

Here is an easy gift idea that you can whip up, very possibly with supplies you already have. You don’t have to possess Pinterest-level DIY skills or order tons of obscure materials. Just mix it up in a cute, small jar (like a cleaned out jam jar), tie a ribbon on with a sweet note, and voila, gift problem solved 🙂

Chocolate Face Scrub

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/8 cup olive oil

1 tablespoon cocoa powder (baking cocoa, not hot cocoa mix)

1/4 teaspoon vanilla

Mix all ingredients together in a jar.

Directions for use: Gently rub onto face for 1 minute and rinse.

Easy, huh?
