Coconut Oil Coffee Scrub — The Best DIY Cellulite Trick

Did you know you can use a homemade coconut oil coffee scrub to help alleviate cellulite?

That’s right, you don’t need to invest in any expensive creams or scrubs to reap the benefits of this natural exfoliant.

The best thing about this homemade coffee scrub though is that it serves multiple purposes.

Coffee grounds not only help to exfoliate, but also give an energized appearance to skin due to the caffeine content.

That’s why if you check the ingredients in many eye creams, you’ll commonly find caffeine listed there as well.

This scrub also moisturizes even after it’s washed off thanks to the coconut oil.

So, whether you’re struggling with cellulite or are just trying to finally get rid of dull, flaky, and dry skin for good, this scrub is definitely for you.

Disclaimer: Before you try any skincare product, store bought or homemade, I ALWAYS recommend doing a patch text on a small section of your skin to make sure you don’t have a reaction (because having a reaction is always a risk you take with new skincare products!). You should also discontinue use of any of the DIY beauty recipes on this site if you experience any redness, irritation, etc.
