Sugar scrub question
How long do homemade sugar scrubs last once made?
I was thinking about sending my MIL a Mocha Spice Sugar Scrub
Mocha Spice Sugar Scrub - Recipe for Mocha Spice Sugar Body Scrub
If I mixed it all up now it would be a month before she even opened it. Is that okay or should I make a sugar scrub kit the dry ingredients in the jar and a bottle of the oil then she could mix them together when she was ready to use maybe include a plastic spoon so she could have it all in one place when she decided to use it.

As long as the container is airtight, it should be okay. If it's exposed to moisture, then it could become rancid. Hope this helps.

Sorry Imagine, I copied the wrong site.
This is what I meant to:
How to Store Homemade Sugar Body Scrub | eHow.com
I made a scrub using just sugar and oil. Kept it in a small mason jar to use as a foot scrub. Kept it for a couple months that way.

I think I will send it to her dry and liquids not mixed. I found a small bottle of oil. That way she can mix it up when she wants. Originally Posted by shoiji
