Lately, one has been constantly been hearing about health problems stemming from lifestyle choices. However, It is difficult to separate the noise from the news. But I figured we can’t go wrong if the products we consume are largely naturally made.
While buying natural products is always an option, the joy of making a product at home and watching your loved ones use them is something else. (Moreover, homemade products rarely contain preservatives)
Here’s a simple recipe with common kitchen ingredients that could help you make a small start:
COFFEE BODY SCRUB
What you need:
- As a base : 1 portion used coffee powder (Not instant Coffee)
If you have recently used one of our Bewild Indian Filter Coffee or Bewild Cold Brew Coffee, store the leftover coffee powder and use it
- As an addition, any of these ingredients: 1 portion coconut oil, 1 portion of fresh grated coconut or 1 portion of brown sugar
Steps:
- Transfer the used coffee powder to a small glass jar
- Add any one of the additional ingredients, depending on your preference.
- Mix well
- Refrigerate or store in a cool and dry place
It is best to make small batches, since this recipe does not recommend the usage of any preservatives
That’s it!
You may use this as a full body scrub, including the face. You can choose to keep it on as a mask for 10-15 minutes or just rinse it off immediately. On most days, you may not even feel the need to use a soap after this!
