Get that Glowing Skin in an Instant

  Hello there mommies! I just want to share with you a DIY body scrub that is a very affordable alternative to those expensive body scrubs you can buy at spas and specialty shops. It is one of my faves to make whenever I want to indulge myself in the comfort of my own home. I promise you that it is easy to make (easy as 1, 2, 3). 
What you'll need: 
Coffee grounds
Extra Virgin Olive oil or jojoba oil
Honey (optional)

Mix all together and you're done.
Apply to the face and body using circular motions.
Leave for 3-5 minutes then rinse skin thoroughly with warm water.






Your skin should feel smooth and supple, and will have a healthy glow in an instant. 

Benefits of Coffee Scrub
Exfoliating body scrubs typically contain a granulated ingredient, whether or not they're homemade. Some body scrubs use sugar or sea salt. These granular agents polish away dead skin cells to reveal fresh, new skin beneath. Coffee grounds, which are also granular in nature, can have the same effect. Coffee contains caffeine (of course we all know that), however, it has potent anti-inflammatory properties that make it ideal for reducing inflammation and redness in our skin. Using caffeine in this delicate area can easily tighten fine lines and smoothen puffy surfaces. It can help improve the appearance of varicose veins and thread veins and can also help reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Try this at home mommies and let me know your thoughts...
