This homemade coconut and coffee scrub is an exfoliant good enough to eat. From the blog Bev Cooks, the DIY body-exfoliating product is made with used coffee grounds and coconut oil.
It is extremely easy to make and is also a more natural way to go about exfoliating. For some added grit and gravelly texture, you can also add sugar to the coffee scrub. If fragrance is an important part of your beauty or skin care routine, you will also love the way this smells. The project is eco-friendly and cheaper than splurging at the spa, so you really have no reason not to make this and pamper yourself.
Pregnant ladies might want to stick to decaf grounds.
