If you are a coffee addict, you know that it’s your ultimate source of zen – a perfect kickstart to any day. But do you know your morning coffee is much more than a daily pick-me-up? 

Coffee is an all-natural alternative to commercially available scrubs. I am not joking! Coffee can tighten and brighten your skin and give it a smoother appearance. Scroll down and take a look at some simple DIY coffee face and body scrub recipes.

Coffee scrub & its skin benefits 

The sand-like texture of coffee grounds makes a great exfoliant in homemade scrubs. The grounds work to gently remove dead skin cells, which helps to rejuvenate and boost circulation. Hello, youthful, glowing, silky-smooth skin! Exfoliants can also plump and tighten, helping to temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite.
