Oil: olive, canola, vegetable

Sugar: granulated, brown, truvia (salt can be substituted)

NOTE:

*Do NOT use sand or any other granulated substance that will clog your drain.

*Do SCRUB your shower more often or place a non-slip mat in inside as the oil will make the surface slick.

The Basic Recipe:

Mix in a bowl:

1 cup sugar, brown sugar, truvia or salt

1/2 cup Oil: olive, canola or vegetable

1/4 cup vanilla extract
