DIY Coffee-Infused Scrub Recipe for Glowing Skin

Ingredients:

1 cup of Organic Coffee Grounds:

Choose finely ground coffee for a gentle exfoliation. The coarseness of coffee grounds helps in removing dead skin cells.

1/2 cup of Brown Sugar:

Brown sugar adds an extra layer of exfoliation and is a natural source of glycolic acid, promoting healthy and youthful skin.

1/2 cup of Coconut Oil (or any carrier oil of your choice):

Coconut oil is deeply moisturizing and nourishing for the skin. It also helps bind the scrub together.

1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract:

Vanilla adds a delightful scent to the scrub, providing a calming and soothing aroma during the application.

Airtight Jar or Container:

To store your scrub and maintain its freshness.

Brew the Coffee:

Make a strong cup of coffee and allow it to cool. You can use the grounds left in your coffee maker for this recipe.

Combine Coffee Grounds and Brown Sugar:

In a mixing bowl, combine the organic coffee grounds and brown sugar. Stir the mixture well to ensure an even exfoliation.

Add Coconut Oil:

Melt the coconut oil and pour it into the coffee and sugar mixture. Mix thoroughly until you achieve a consistent, moist texture.

Incorporate Vanilla Extract:

Add the vanilla extract for a delightful fragrance. Stir the mixture well, making sure the vanilla is evenly distributed.

Transfer to an Airtight Container:

Spoon the mixture into an airtight jar or container. Seal it tightly to preserve the freshness of your scrub.

Wet your skin with warm water to open up pores.
Scoop out a small amount of the coffee scrub and gently massage it onto your skin in circular motions.
Focus on areas that need extra exfoliation, like elbows, knees, and heels.
Leave the scrub on for a few minutes to allow the ingredients to work their magic.
Rinse off with warm water and pat your skin dry.
Follow up with your favorite moisturizer for silky smooth skin.

Use the scrub 2-3 times a week for best results.
Perform a patch test before using the scrub to ensure you don’t have any allergies or adverse reactions to the ingredients.

Enjoy the rejuvenating and aromatic experience of your homemade coffee-infused scrub, leaving your skin exfoliated, moisturized, and glowing!
