You can never have too many exfoliators. Coffee grounds are great for that!
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons coconut or olive oil

- 2-3 drops of tea tree oil
Directions
- Combine all ingredients.

Cellulite Fighter
Cellulite can’t be removed entirely, but it can be worked on. The caffeine in coffee is proven to enhance fat metabolism and increase circulation. This can help reduce the appearance of cellulite. Try using your scrub on your cellulite-covered areas.
Hair Mask
The caffeine in coffee can help stimulate your scalp. Take old grounds and mix them with your favorite conditioner. Gently massage your scalp with it.
