Pretty by Nature

Not your Average Cup of Joe

by Noel Boehm on December 29th, 2007

I came across this recipe for a homemade coffee scrub and I just had to share. I used to never drink coffee but now I can’t make it through the day without at least one cup. This is a good way to recycle the grounds. It is a little messy but well worth the effort I think.

• 3 T Coffee grounds (organic-caffeinated)

• 1 T Salt (optional)

To Make:  Brew a fresh pot of coffee. Enjoy a cup, if you like. Put grounds (and salt) in a small bowl. Use grounds within 20 minutes of brewing before oxidation occurs.

To Use:  Scrub mixture over entire body while in the shower. Rinse. Tone. Moisturize.

I followed with my lovely toner and moisturizer from LUSH and I just feel as fresh as a daisy, don’t ya know.
