Sugar scrub separating

[Nancy OLeary]

Hello all- new member here. I've been making a sugar scrub with coconut oil, sugar, honey & a small amount of coarse salt but it's been separating so there's a layer of oil on top. Can I add an emulsifying wax to a batch that's already made - if so how? TIA

It is normal for an oil based sugar scrub to have some oil on top unless you are making emulsified sugar scrub. Just stir it up before using.
If you want to try an emulsified sugar scrub, most suppliers have formulations on their website. Humblebee&me also has some recipes.
