Mix together all the dry ingredients and then gradually add the oil. Combine until it forms a paste then gently apply the mixture to the face in circular motions. Leave it for ten minutes and then remove with warm water.
Benefits of coffee
The sand-like texture of coffee grounds makes a great exfoliant in homemade scrubs. The coffee grounds gently remove dead skin cells, rejuvenating and boosting circulation. Coffee has anti-inflammatory properties and increases skin collagen.
