A bit of exfoliation is a great way to get your skin looking in shape, especially as summer rolls around. When I hit the spa, most likely it's going to be for a body scrub, but to save myself some serious moola, I'm always looking for ways to replicate the recipes for good body scrubs at home. My 'spa lady' told me once that regular fine sea salt and coconut oil is a great combination, but here is a mix I have used for the past few months, and it's working wonders. Try this one:
- Finely granulated coffee
- Finely granulated sea salt
- A touch of cinnamon
- Grape-seed oil
Your skin will feel smooth and nourished. I've read that coffee is excellent for the prevention of cellulite (and the smell is yummy!!!). Remember, the finer the salt and coffee granules, the better! Grape-seed oil is also said to be high in vitamins, minerals and protein, and is a great moisturizer.
I like to do this routine once per week, usually in the night (however, twice per week should be fine depending on how sensitive your skin is).
Hope you try this at home spa treatment and enjoy :) And if you do, please let me know what you think!
