Gentle exfoliation on the hands and body feels good and helps slough off dry winter skin and leaves your skin feeling fresh and healthy.  Use this DIY Pumpkin Body Scrub once or twice and follow up with your favorite body butter or lotion.   To keep your DIY Pumpkin Body Scrub from spoiling, I’ve omitted the fresh pumpkin and added natural food color along with a few drops of essential oil for a luxurious bath or shower scrub.

Coconut oil is solid at about 76 degrees.  If your DIY Pumpkin Spice Body Scrub is too solid for your liking, gently heat the oil to soften it.
