Soapbuddy another question I wanted to do was precisely the preservatives, I would imagine that if you use eg wheat germ (vitamin E) can not be bad for honey, I do not know if it will preserve the effect.
I used one of the ingredients of sweet almond oil, but any type of oil for the skin: argan, jojoba, etc.. I think it may go well (no essential oils).
What is the last time without being damaged? I do not know, but as you say maybe two months is good.
Soapbbudy I think the good idea to make ice cubes.

Wheatgerm will not preserve. Vit E. is an anti-oxidant, not a preservative. You can use pretty much any oils that you like; almond, fractionated coconut, shea oil, jojoba...
Just make sure that it's a liquid, not a solid.

The great thing about one time use solid sugar scrub, the container never goes into the shower, so that helps prevent bacterias from getting into your product. Mine are 1x1x1/2, then I break in half. That's plenty to scrub.
Since I use a condioning E wax, they stay togeter as if i used bees wax and there's no slippery mess left over on the shower floor.
As soon as I get some pictures, I will post them, if anyone is interested... I like to share!

I would be interested in seeing the pictures and the recipe. A single use solid sugar scrub sounds very interesting to me.

Sorry, not the best picture.
The green ones I used a Spa Mint and the pink I used Pink Sugar FO. Both are really nice to use.

Wiltons 24 cavity bite size brownie mold. I have quite a few silicone ice trays in different shapes that work well also.
