Delicious gourmet coffee scents with gentle exfoliating and polishing
This rich, exfoliating scrub leaves the skin soft, hydrated and refreshed. Turbinado Sugar plus a blast of caffeinated coffee grounds renew skin while plant powered oils seal in water. Exfoliating 2-3 times per week keeps the skin free of dead skin cells for a baby soft feel.
Turbinado sugar is the gentlest way to exfoliate the body. It provides the texture needed to slough away dead skin cells but is less rough than salts. A finer grain of exfoliation from ground coffee polishes and refines the skin. Coconut, shea, and avocado oils are the best conditioners for the body by providing deep moisture.
Turbinado Sugar, Ground Coffee, Coconut Oil*, Shea Butter*, Avocado Oil*.*Organic Ingredient
Please check each item for fragrance ingredients, we use both essential oils and delicious skin safe synthetic fragrances in our products.
Turbinado sugar is slightly refined, but has most of the molasses and nutrients still intact. We use a rich roasted ground coffee to provide a solid polishing texture and add a lovely coffee fragrance to the product. Avocado oil helps the mixture adhere to skin and produces a layer of protection that helps skin retain moisture. Our recipe includes a hint of Organic Shea Butter to help keep the product in a less liquid state at regular room temperatures, preventing separation. If the product becomes heated, simply stir to redistribute the oils while cooling.
