Quick answer: Tree Hut's 2026 holiday scents are Candy Cane, Angel Cake (Target), Cranberry Fluff, Honeycrisp Spice (Walmart), Frosted Plum (Ulta), Lavender Ice (Target) and Marshmallow Lodge (Ulta). The collection launched November 2, 2026. At Ulta on November 11, 2026, the 18 oz scrubs were $9.99, the Candy Cane Whipped Body Butter was $10.99, the 3.4 oz minis were $5.99 and the Very Vanilla Trio Gift Set was $19.99. Our pick is Frosted Plum.
If there is a stocking-stuffer hall of fame, the Tree Hut sugar scrub is in it. The Texas brand, which calls itself America's No. 1 body scrub brand, launched its limited-edition holiday collection on November 2, and it is the easiest beauty gift of the season to grab for teachers, sisters, coworkers and yourself.
At launch on November 2, 2026, the collection was in stores nationally at Target, Walmart and Ulta Beauty, and online on Amazon. The packaging is inspired by Nordic folk art, and it looks a lot more expensive than it is.
"Holiday body care should be just as fun to use as it is to give," Lindsey Scales, Tree Hut's vice president of marketing, said in the announcement. "The collection feels giftable, collectible and joyful."

What we would buy
Our pick is the Frosted Plum. Plum and clementine is a grown-up holiday scent: fruity and warm without smelling like a candy shop.
- Frosted Plum Shea Sugar Scrub, $9.99 for 18 ounces at Ulta
- Frosted Plum Foaming Gel Wash, $9.99 at Ulta
- Marshmallow Lodge Shea Sugar Scrub, $9.99 for 18 ounces at Ulta, for anyone who missed it the first time
If you love a classic, the Candy Cane line is the crowd-pleaser:
- Candy Cane Whipped Body Butter, $10.99 for 8.4 ounces
- Candy Cane mini Shea Sugar Scrub, $5.99 for 3.4 ounces
- Cranberry Fluff mini Shea Sugar Scrub, $5.99 for 3.4 ounces
Those $5.99 minis are the move for a stocking or a gift basket. Buy a handful and you are done with five people on your list.
The gift sets
Tree Hut made several sets this year. The Ulta-exclusive Very Vanilla Trio Gift Set is $19.99, and so is the Ulta-exclusive Frosted Fairytale Mighty Mini Trio, though that one was already showing out of stock online when we checked on November 2, 2026. Target has its own exclusive sets, including an Angel Cake set and a 6 Days of Holidays set.
A quick tip
Sugar scrubs exfoliate, so go gentle. Use one two or three times a week on damp skin, skip freshly shaved legs, and follow with a body butter while your skin is still a little wet. Your elbows will thank you all winter.

Our take
Tree Hut is not luxury, and it is not pretending to be. It is a $10 treat that smells amazing, works well and looks pretty under a tree. Grab the Frosted Plum scrub for yourself and a stack of Candy Cane minis for everyone else.
