Homemade Mimosa Sugar Scrub
I think my favorite thing about Mimosas are the simplicity. A few ingredients pack a powerful punch.

Notes
"Due to the water content in the orange juice, this product needs a water based preservative or else it can grow microscopic nasties that you would never see or smell, but they would be there. if you don’t want to use a preservative, then it needs to be kept in the fridge and used in a week, then discarded."
