Espresso Scrub For Your Tootsies

Total Time: 5 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 3 -4 tablespoons ground coffee (i find the instant stuff works quite well because the granules are quite chunky, but any will do)
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar (optional, if you don't have any just use sugar, it doesn't make much difference!) (optional)
  • oil (whichever oil you like, experiment with olive oil, coconut oil etc)
  • essential oil (optional)

Recipe

  • 1 combine the coffee and sugar together in a small bowl.
  • 2 add enough oil until the scrub forms a consistency that suits you (i find that it works best when it's more of a liquidy paste).
  • 3 you can experiment with a couple of drops of your chosen essential oils to create your own unique scent. a couple of suggestions are lavender, peppermint or cinnamon. you don't need to add any if you don't want to.
  • 4 *idea - if you'd like to make it a mocha scrub, try adding in a tablespoon of cocoa powder in step one.
