Wake me up, before you go go!

What has me singing Wham songs on this lovely Saturday afternoon? My coffee scrub, of course. I am SO thrilled with it. I absolutely LOVE the smell of coffee, and guess what?! When you put lots of coffee in a sugar scrubb, it smells... just like coffee! What has really surprised me though, is how well it works as an exfoliant.

From all of the research I've been doing, coffee scrubs are becoming pretty popular. Apparently the caffeine in the coffee does some pretty wonderful things for the skin. It reportedly aids in skin renewal AND is a natural anti-cellulite treatment. I wouldn't know anything about having any cellulite. ;)

Instead of just using the oils that a lot of coffee scrubs contain, I decided to whip up some Shea Butter and then mix it in. It makes such a HUGE difference in the way the scrub feels.

Now I'm just working on designing the labels. Can't wait to get them printed so I can start listing my yummy coffee scrubs. Cool Beans!!
