CAN YOU STORE THIS SUGAR SCRUB ?
I usually do not store. Simply because I like to make this sugar scrub fresh. It does not take much time you only need 5-6 minutes to make it. So, it’s better to make it fresh whenever you want to scrub.
But if you still want to store then you can keep it in refrigerator for about 1-2 days in an airtight jar.
