What Is a Coffee Body Scrub?
Coffee body scrub is an exfoliating body wash made from coffee grounds. The coffee grounds exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells to reveal softer skin. Some also state that the caffeine found in coffee body scrub can actually help firm cellulite, though this has not been scientifically proven. Body scrub might also be referred to as body polish. Body scrub is a type of body wash that is meant to be used outside of the tub or shower, or as part of a massage at a spa. Coffee body scrub, or any type of body scrub, should never be used on the delicate skin of the face — the exfoliation is much too harsh. This type of scrub is not meant to be used every day, but rather once a week or a few times a month, depending on the dryness and roughness of the skin.
