On the benefits of using coffee…
Caffeine found in coffee scrubs improves blood circulation, may reduce the appearance of cellulite and gives the skin a more even tone look. When a coffee body scrub is applied, the skin absorbs the antioxidant properties to prevent premature aging. After exfoliating on a regular basis, you will notice the skin is able to absorb moisture more effectively. This will stimulate blood flow, which can help diminish things.
The anti-inflammatory properties coupled with polyphenols and hydro cinnamic acid present in coffee can help reduce inflammation and soothe red, inflamed breakouts. The caffeine present in coffee acts as a stimulant which improves the circulation of blood that moves through your veins. Coffee also contains antioxidants that are good for the skin and can instantly give you glowing, fresh and youthful skin.
Cane sugar makes an amazing abrasive ingredient in scrubs. It's a natural humectant, so it retains moisture and ensures skin is kept hydrated, making it ideal for delicate and sensitive skin, especially because it melts away upon contact with water. Sugar is also known to be a pure, natural source of Glycolic Acid, also known as an AHA, which helps to break down dead, flaky skin and help support cell turnover. It's extremely effective at treating mature skin while still being gentle and non-irritating on sensitive skin. Combined with nourishing oils, this scrub can be used before or during bathing for a thorough exfoliating treatment that leaves skin smooth, soft and supple.
Avocado Oil is full of antioxidants, vitamins, and fatty acids that work wonders for the skin. It nourishes and moisturizes skin as well as protects it from damage. Avocado Oil contains vitamins A, E, and D and is rich in fatty acids, and in particular oleic acid which promotes the production of collagen in the skin and helps during the skin healing process.
Ingredients:
Organic cane sugar, organic Peruvian coffee grounds, organic whipped grass fed tallow, organic cold pressed avocado oil infused with organic orange peel, cinnamon, vanilla beans, and organic essential oil blend
How to use:
Scoop a small amount and scrub desired areas. I love to wet my hands, legs, arms, and face first to help the scrub spread easily. Scrub in circular motions and rinse with warm water. Avoid getting water into the jar and contaminating your scrub, which can contribute to the growth of mold and bacteria.
