Coffee Coconut Body Scrub

Winter can be tough on skin, it becomes rough and dry, and cracked.  But there are things you can do to make it feel a little better.  I like to use coconut oil to moisturize after washing, but it is good to get rid of dead skin first too, and that is where the coffee scrub I am sharing with you today comes in.  Not only does it smell amazing, but it gets rid of dead skin, moisturizes thanks to the coconut oil, and helps to fight cellulite because of the coffee.  It is easy to make, and keeps well in a jar for a long time.  This is perfect for in the morning in the shower.  You feel energized after using it and taking in the aroma.
