DIY Coffee Scrub to Help with Stretch Marks


Cellulite is a common concern and while there is no magic solution to get rid of it completely, exfoliating with a body scrub can help reduce the appearance of dimpling on the skin. This DIY body scrub recipe can help reduce cellulite while inviting oxygen and blood flow to the top most layers of the skin.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup coffee grounds

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup coconut oil

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the coffee grounds and brown sugar.

  2. Add in the coconut oil and mix well.

  3. Add the cinnamon to the mixture and stir until everything is well combined.

  4. Transfer the mixture to an airtight jar or container.

To use:

  1. Wet your skin in the shower or bath.

  2. Take a handful of the body scrub and gently massage it onto your skin in circular motions, focusing on areas where you have cellulite.

  3. Rinse off with warm water and pat your skin dry.

The caffeine in the coffee grounds helps to stimulate blood flow and reduce the appearance of cellulite, while the brown sugar helps to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. The coconut oil moisturizes and nourish the skin, while the cinnamon has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce swelling.

Using this DIY body scrub regularly can help improve the texture and appearance of your skin, leaving it soft, smooth, and healthy-looking. Pair this with daily low-impact exercise for the ultimate body skin care routine.
