October’s sample is Spiced Mahogany. Be sure to take a peak at the tutorial (especially if you’re a fan of adorable little birdies). There’s also quite a few from previous months that are worth checking out: Cherry Blossom, Fresh Bamboo, Sweet Meyer Lemon, Violet, White Ginger & Amber, Butter Cream & Snickerdoodle, and Moonlight Pomegranate. We don’t always repost them on the blog so be sure to check them out if you haven’t seen them at the Bramble Berry site before.

ONE:Â Using a mixer, beat the Foaming Bath Whip (by itself) for about a minute or less. You’re just looking for a little bit of volume, a sort of “wake me up”!

TWO:Â Add the Sweet Almond oil and Black Amber & Lavender Fragrance. Mix well.

THREE:Â Add the Rose Clay and mix well.

FOUR:Â Once all of the other ingredients are well mixed, add the sugar a little bit at a time, mixing fully each time before adding more sugar. Continue until all of the sugar is incorporated.

FIVE:Â Transfer the sugar scrub to jars or other containers using a spoon or spatula. Enjoy!
