hey all you classy people out there who use a coffee machine that uses ground coffee! :cool:

ever wondered what you could do with the ground coffee after the coffee has been brewed?

well u can use it as an EXFOLIANT!

how?

take the ground coffee and apply to wet skin so the coffee doesnt scratch you.

either rub into your legs with your hands or a flannel and rub in a circular motion this also increases blood flow to your legs!

simply wash off afterwards and wash with normal shower gel.

im not joking my legs were so smooth!!!

enjoy your free and planet saving exfoliant!
you dont have to splurge on expensive for great exfoliation!:)

um......... it didnt make my skin go brown but u should probably do a patch test on just a small bit of your skin. also dont leave it on long just massage in and wash off straight after.

maybe brown skin would be nice this time of year, as long as it was a nice even brown glow. I like this idea, sounds like fun and will FREAK any shower partners!

sorry did i forget to mention the coffee grounds have to have been used first in making coffee and yeah it is good against cellulite because it boosts the bloodflow in your legs because it masages your skin. a bit messy to clean up but not too bad.
