Health Benefits of Coffee Scrub

Aromatherapy

  • Coffee oil is often used in aromatherapy treatments. The scent of coffee acts to clear a person’s mind of excessive thoughts. The scent also works as an anti-depressant and can combat feelings of nausea. Using a coffee body scrub will allow you to take advantage of its aromatherapy features.

Antioxidants

  • The main chemical in coffee is caffeine, a natural antioxidant. Antioxidants have many benefits, including heart disease- and cancer-fighting properties. Antioxidants also neutralize the effects of free radicals, which can damage the inner layer of skin. This damage is often reflected in age spots and wrinkles. When a coffee body scrub is applied, the skin absorbs this antioxidant and can help prevent premature aging.

Exfoliation

  • Because coffee scrubs are made with coarse grounds and salt or sugar, they act as exfoliates for the skin. Regular exfoliation of the skin removes residual dirt and dead skin to give you younger looking, fresh skin. After the skin is exfoliated, it is able to absorb moisture more effectively as well. All beauty regimens should include exfoliation treatments, and the coffee scrub provides it.

Blood Flow

  • Some people use coffee body scrubs to combat the occurrence of varicose veins. The caffeine found in coffee scrubs typically increases blood flow and may reduce the appearance of cellulite. Even the action of applying the coffee scrub can help with these types of skin issues because squeezing and massaging the body helps to release toxins and fats held in the skin.

Skin Texture

  • Caffeine is a vasodilator, which means it constricts blood vessels in the skin. This action works to make blood vessels tighter and firmer very quickly, which is reflected in your skin texture.

The accumulation of fat and toxins beneath the surface of the skin causes unsightly marks that many fear are incurable.

  • Juniper oil
  • Rosemary oil

  • Cypress oil
  1. Start by putting 3 tbsp. of witch hazel lotion in a bowl. Add 10 drops of juniper oil, 10 drops of rosemary oil, 30 drops of grapefruit oil and 30 drops of cypress oil. Blend thoroughly.
  2. Add 8 oz. of your unscented lotion to the mixture of witch hazel and essential oils. Mix until well-blended.
  3. Take the lotion and massage it into the affected area once in the morning and once in the evening. Make sure you massage the lotion in a circular motion until it absorbs into the skin.
  4. Place the mixture in an air-tight container for storage.
