Dark Chocolate Spiced Espresso Sugar Scrub

This time of the year reminds me of the intoxicating and deep aromas of oranges, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, chocolate, and espresso.  I blended my favorite smells into a smoothing and nourishing sugar body scrub.  My recipe is formulated with brown and white sugars, instant espresso powder, dark cocoa powder, sweet almond and kukui nut oils, and an enchanting blend of pure essential oils.  I like to use this right before a hot shower. My bathroom truly smells like a freshly brewed spiced mocha!
