Okay, so I LOVE doing at home facials, manicures, bubble baths, and scrubs. There’s just something about pampering yourself at home that is oh-so-good! My new favorite thing is a scrub that you can make entirely from stuff you probably already have in your kitchen (so it’s natural and wallet-friendly)!
What you do:
-Take the coffee grounds you have left in your pot from the AM and put in a bowl
-Add a couple scoops of brown or white sugar
-Drizzle in several tablespoons of olive oil or grape seed oil (or a little of both) until the concoction is a little “gooey”
-Squirt some lemon juice on top
Now head to the bathroom! Get in the tub and get your body a little damp. Rub the scrub all over your body (be careful on the face/eyes). You can rub it on and then let it set in for a few minutes while you read your favorite magazine if you wish (the caffeine helps cellulite and tightens your skin and increases circulation while the oil moisturizes). Or, if you are in a hurry you can rinse right off (the lemon juice and sugar helps exfoliate).
You can either do this before your shower or bath and then wash off with soap, or you can do this at the end of your shower/bath and rinse in order to have a super-boost of moisture!
Tip: Your tub or shower will be slick, so you may want to put a towel down or spray a cleaning spray when finished (the next person in the tub may appreciate it)!
Enjoy your smooth, moisturized, exfoliated skin!
