The past couple of months I’ve been trying to buy less beauty products and make more of my own. I didn’t want to be that person who makes their own beauty products, but alas I am. I’ve been making various body scrubs since I made this scrub back in January. I decided that I wanted so edible and energizing.
After playing around in the kitchen I came up with this delicious concoction.
(Please ensure that you use food grade oils if you plan on eating this scrub)
Ingredients
1 tbsp coffee grounds
2 tbsp cocoa powder
6 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp almond oil
1 tbsp shea butter
2 drops citrus fresh essential oil
- Melt solid oils in microwave or using a double boiler.
- Mix in remaining ingredients.
- Exfoliate.
I found this scrub very grounding, relaxing and energizing. It’s perfect for when you’re wired and tired. It also left my skin feeling soft and hydrated. If you try it out let me know how it works for you.
