Homemade DIY Coffee Body Scrub

You don't need to break the mini pig bank to get a fantastic organic body scrub, just follow this quick DIY. You will need coffee powder (the used one, right after the coffee is made).

Then you just need 2 tbsp of almond oil and 2 tbsp of coconut oil. Mix it very well with the coffee powder until you get a creamy consistency. Then use it as a regular scrub and rinse it out with water. The skin's dead cells will be removed and your skin will be perfectly moisturized!

If you want to use it on your face, replace the almond oil by 2 tbsp of Rose Water, and apply it with a cotton pad, and then use your fingers in circular motions. After that you just rinse it with water and voilĂ !
