MYOM: Anti-Cellulite Coffee Scrub Cubes

You read that right coffee scrub cubes. We are turning this scrub into a solid for easy dosing, easy handling, less mess, less waste,  and because this way they look hella fresh and make for really nice gifts! 

Coffee is the main ingredient in these amazing scrub cubes that will have you daisy duke ready in no time. The caffeine promotes circulation, which aids in the treatment of the dreaded dimpling known as cellulite. The coffee combined with two powerful exfoliators: sugar and salt, and the nourishing properties of coconut oil, make this scrub a win-win-win-win! 

I recommend you use this scrub at least twice a week, and take care to massage the area thoroughly for best results. Cellulite is caused by bloated fat cells in the body that are starved of blood flow, the coffee temporarily dehydrates these cells resulting in a smoother appearance.  

You will need: 

• 1 cup of coconut oil (This oil is amazing for your body. If you want more information about it, read this article to learn more)
• 1 cup of freshly ground coffee
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup sea salt 
• an ice cube tray, muffin tin, or other mold

Here's what to do:

First you need to melt your coconut oil.  I don't like to use the microwave, so I just place the jar in hot water for a few minutes. Next, combine the coffee, sugar, and salt. I like to use my hands in order to break up any clumps in the brown sugar. Add the coconut oil to the coffee mix. Then transfer the mix to your mold of your choice. Pop them in the freezer until the coconut oil hardens, about 30 minutes. Then put them in a plastic bag or jar and store them in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to use. 




How to use:

Massage into clean skin in a circular motion focusing on your trouble spots. Massage for at least 5 minutes remembering the key is increasing circulation. 

One last thing! Oil + Water = A Hella Slippery Shower Floor. Be careful! 

Happy Scrubbing!

XOXO,
