I use a recipe of Swift's from her blog for my sugar scrub.
I also tend to replace some of the sugar in it for pumice stone, which make it really scrubby. And I usually use SAO instead, but I think any combination of fun oils will work.
Here it is:
"EMULSIFIED SUGAR SCRUB WITH SOY BEAN OIL
10% emulsifying wax (e-wax, Polawax, or BTMS)
10% cetyl alcohol or stearic acid (5% cetyl and 5% stearic is very nice)
10% cocoa butter (or other really hard butter)
10% shea or mango butter (or quite soft butter - shea aloe would be great here)
Good Emulsifying Scrub recipe?
