Sugar Scrub?

[bathandsoap]

I am all about experimenting lately and making new things, I have read though and searched as much as possible, but still a few questions...Okay, when making a sugar scrub, if I am using a mixer to whip up the scrub so thats its fluffy, when do I add the sugar? I have made some with just mixing everything together at once, but can I put the sugar in and still mix it with the mixer, or should I just stir in the sugar? (If that makes sense)

Seems like when i try and whip mine all the sugar dissolves. I found it best to let my oils almost harden, then add my sugar and just stir enough to blend well.

Thank you shutterbug for the response. I didn't even think about the sugar dissolving.
