You may not like the idea of rubbing your body down with coffee grounds, but at the end you will be refreshed and your skin will feel caffeinated and ready for any day! How To Make General Coffee Scrub: 3 Tablespoons of freshly ground coffee 2 Tablespoons of oil (coconut, olive, vegetable, essential, etc) 1 Tablespoon of sugar (raw, granulated, etc.) For all of the ingredients you can use whatever you prefer really. For the oil, coconut and olive work the best but you can use whatever oil you prefer. If you choose coconut oil, you may want to put it into the microwave to melt it down and make it easier to mix. When you have all of your ingredients you are going to want to mix them together until it is all blended well. You may want to experiment with different types of oils, based on your skin type to see which oil works best for you. If there is excess oil, that is okay, it will help to moisturize and hydrate your skin. If you have sensitive skin brown surgar will be the best option for you. You can also use epsom or sea salt, but you want to be careful not to rub and exfoliate too hard to avoid creating micro tears in your skin.
