Coffee grounds + Sugar = Glowing skin

   In my ritual Facebook scroll I kept seeing other girls posting pictures of themselves with coffee grounds all over their face and body. So, being the inquisitive yet frugal genius I am, I decided to search Pinterest to find out how to make this scrub myself. After an hour and 25 various scrubs, I came across this simple and delectable recipe at Mom on time out's blog.


   It was easy enough to make this coffee sugar scrub. So, I prepared everything at night after my kids were in bed. As I began to slather on this caffeine infused scrub I didn't take into account the time or the amount of caffeine I had already ingested earlier that day. Que the insomnia and panic attacks. However, my skin did feel amazing!

   I recommend doing this early in the day, when the caffeine wont have such a negative effect on your body. If you are prone to panic or anxiety attacks, I would also recommend doing less coffee grounds and try it out on a small area of your body first. If you make the coffee sugar scrub, let me know your experience.
