Just this morning I was mixing up a batch of this scrub and I realized that I’d never shared this magical find with you! It is so simple and so CHEAP!! And my skin is incredibly smooth and baby soft when I make the time to use it regularly. I can simply use it in the shower or if I have extra pamper time I actually use it on my whole body and rub it in for a few minutes and then shower off. Some people recommend using a screen of some kind to collect it so that it doesn’t go down the drain, but I’ve never bothered to do that. I haven’t had any more than my usual drain cloggage either. We always had some trouble at our old house with the drains because of my or the girls’ hair. This never seemed to increase the trouble though.

So here is the recipe:

1/4 cup* used coffee grounds

1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoon olive oil

*I use a 1/4 cup of coffee when I make it for my husband, I am a tea drinker myself. So, I don’t have an exact measurement for what the grounds come too after they’ve been used.

I just pour the grounds off of the filter into a mason jar, add in the oil and sugar. Stir it up and put on the lid. That’s it!

You will want to use it up within a week or two to prevent it from molding. Since these are all natural food ingredients that is a possibility. I just rub it into my legs and feet while I’m in the shower, right before I shave. Or, if I have time, I will do my whole body in the shower before I turn the shower on and then just shower as usual. It does a phenomenal job smoothing my rough knees and feet! I just love how smooth and soft my skin is when I’m done. The best results I’ve had were when I used it every day for a week during a Spring Break! It was amazing!!
