Coffee Sugar Scrub
This is a simple recipe that makes a perfect gift or can be used to treat yourself. Coffee acts as an antioxidant for your skin. When combined with the sugar and coconut oil, this will gently exfoliate your skin while washing away toxins and impurities. You can use it on your face, hands, and body. Try to store it in a cool place as the scrub goes on better when the coconut oil is solid.
