Witch’s Brew Halloween Body Scrub – A Spooky DIY for Glowing Halloween Skin

When October hits and the pumpkins roll out, it’s the perfect time to stir up a little bubbling brew—for your skin! This Witch’s Brew Body Scrub is a fun, fizzy, exfoliating scrub made with natural ingredients and a hint of Halloween magic. It sloughs off dead skin, boosts circulation, and leaves you silky smooth, just in time for costume parties or cozy nights in.

Whether you’re prepping for a haunted house event or simply want a little pampering after handing out candy all night, this scrub is your go-to potion.

Why You’ll Love This DIY Halloween Scrub

  • Looks like a bubbling cauldron (especially in black or purple jars) 
  • Gently exfoliates and moisturizes dry autumn skin 
  • Scented with spooky-good essential oils (think patchouli, orange, and clove) 
  • Made with simple pantry staples 
  • Customisable with shimmer, color, or even candy eyeballs (for visual fun—not for use!) 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup sugar (white or brown) 
  • ¼ cup coconut oil (or grapeseed oil) 
  • 1 tbsp activated charcoal (for a spooky black color) 
  • ½ tsp green mica or cosmetic-grade shimmer (optional cauldron glow) 
  • 5 drops orange essential oil 
  • 3 drops clove essential oil 
  • 2 drops patchouli or cinnamon essential oil 
  • Optional: ½ tsp vanilla extract (for a sweet twist) 
  • Optional topping: candy eyeballs or star confetti (for display only!) 

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, combine sugar, charcoal, and mica powder. Stir until evenly mixed. 
  2. Add the coconut oil and stir to create a wet, sandy texture. 
  3. Drop in the essential oils and vanilla extract, if using. Mix well. 
  4. Spoon into a small jar or Halloween-themed container. If gifting, top with a candy eyeball or wrap with a “Witch’s Brew” label. 

How to Use:

In the shower, scoop a tablespoon and gently massage into damp skin in circular motions. Avoid the face (due to charcoal), and rinse thoroughly. Follow with body butter or lotion for spellbinding softness.

Gifting Idea:

Pair it with a “Batty Bath Bomb” or “Pumpkin Spice Lip Balm” in a little Halloween basket. Great for party favours, teacher gifts, or seasonal markets!
