Coffee body scrub

While we do love store bought coffee scrubs, you will be surprised at how easy it is to make it yourself. This DIY coffee scrub is perfect for the mornings when you need a wake up boost. Just don't freak out about the mess it makes, it washes right down the drain.

You need

•    2/3 cup coffee grounds

•    1/2 cup raw sugar

•    1/2 cup melted coconut oil or olive oil

•    2 tsps vanilla extract

Method

Mix all ingredients together and store in a jar. This works well before you step into the shower. Simple moisten your skin, take a generous amount of the scrub (enough for your body surface), and gradually rub all over, scrubbing away dead skin cells. Wait for five minutes before rinsing it off in the shower. If you don't want any oily residue, simple wash it off with a shower gel.

Vanilla lip scrub

Lips feeling dry and flaky? Try applying this homemade lip scrub made using sugar, vanilla and coconut oil, and gently exfoliate with your finger. Warning: try not to eat the whole tub.

•    1 tsp vanilla extract

Method

Combine all the ingredients well and store in a small jar. To use, take a pea sized amount in your palm, and solwly apply the mixture onto your lips, scrubbing in tiny circles. Simple rinse and pat dry after five minutes.
