• 1/2 cup fresh ground coffee (Fresh are best, but dry used grounds will work, too)

• 1/2 cup brown sugar

• 1/2 cup melted coconut oil

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Tip: Choose fine grounds, as the coarse kind can be too harsh for sensitive or delicate skin.

Preparation Time:

Mix together your coffee and sugar. Add your melted coconut oil into the mixture with vanilla extract. Mix well. Rub mixture over body, and rinse throughly. Be sure to be careful if using it in the shower as the oil can make surfaces slippery.
