What do i need to make this scrub? What are the benefits?How do i make a coffee facial or body scrub?
1) While in the shower, vigorously rub coffee grounds on troubled cellulite spots for a few minutes everyday or a few times a week. Coffee is a stimulant and breaks down fat deposits when rubbed on those areas.





2) Give yourself a wonderful Homemade Body Scrub/Facial with Coffee Grounds, resulting in the smoothest softest skin you could imagine! For even smoother skin, add a few Tablespoons of Mineral Oil, Jojoba Oil or Olive Oil right from your kitchen cabinet accompanied by a few drops of your favorite essential oil.





3) Replenish your summer tan by rubbing coffee grounds all over your body then leave on for 30 minutes. Brewed coffee at room temperature can also be sponged and left on your skin for 20-30 minutes. Darker skin can be achieved by repeating this process more often.





Brown Sugar Vanilla Body Scrub





1 Cup Fresh Coffee Grinds


1/2 Cup Brown Sugar


1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract or Vanilla Essential Oil


1/4 Cup of either Olive Oil, Mineral Oil, Coconut Oil, Jojoba Oil or Sweet Almond Oil





Mix together then put into a little container. If mixture looks a little crumbly and dry, add a little more oil. With a Loofah Scrub or your hand, rub all over body while in shower then rinse. This mixture will keep for a few weeks or even longer. Because oil is a natural preservative, this will prevent the coffee from molding. Mine has lasted over a month and still going strong!
