The Results
Using the scrub? Yes it's messy. You'll get scrub all over your bathtub, but it just rinses away. But who doesn't love waking up to a fresh pot of coffee being brewed? I personally love the smell - it really wakes you up!
The scrub itself is exactly what you imagine it to be - coffee grinds. I used about 2-3 handfuls for each use. In total, you can get about 5-10 uses from the package. I was very impressed with ingredient list - both because they are truly natural ingredients and they are great for the skin. The moisturizing ingredients in this scrub really do double duty:
1. Gently exfoliates the skin - I sometimes find the sugar scrubs can be a little harsh on the skin, but this coffee scrub got the job done without being overly rough on the skin
2. Naturally Moisturizes the skin - I think the coconut oil is the real winner here. My skin did not feel oily or sticky afterwards - just naturally moisturized. I didn't have to apply any moisturizer after showering!
