...and make a face scrub!!!
I have to tell you...I giggled with delight when I read about this on Crunchy Betty. This chick rocks my world:)
In all seriousness, I am at extremely high risks for breast cancer. If there is a risk factor, I have it to an extreme degree. Regardless, I want to end the industrial wasting away of my body. So, to that end, I am doing everything I can to rid my life of anything I can't make myself. This is actually a tough one for me...because I'm a cosmetics junkie. It's weird, because I don't wear makeup every day, and I don't put much effort into getting ready...but, I could wander around Ulta for days. It's getting easier to envision, but I hold onto the hope that I'll most likely never give up my Bare Minerals, i.e. have a reason to go to Ulta, occasionally:)
So, coffee on your face. What a concept. I'm pretty much tired all the time, so this was extra intriguing to me. The wet grounds, when mixed with a tablespoon of honey, and a teaspoon of cocoa powder...and, you have an amazing facial scrub! I applied it to my face, and between the smell and the exfoliation properties of the coffee, and the moisturizing affects of the honey...even though I looked like this, for a few minutes...
...my face felt amazing afterward. A bonus?...I used the leftovers in the shower, as a "perk you up" body scrub!
I'll let you in on a little secret...I loved it so much that I have done it twice since. One more thing...it didn't cost me a thing!
love it! going to try it! who knows, maybe it will seep into my pours and take my coffee drinking to a new level, since when I drink it now it pretty much wears off within a few hours.
ReplyDeleteAND, it's good to see your sweet (haha, didn't mean it literally, but it is) face. I miss my friends and family in Arlington - so it's good to actually see you!
love you & hope all is well with school and family!

Hiii! I miss you, too! I need your phone number, because my phone was stolen last week, and I had to get a new one. Therefore, any numbers that Brandon didn't have in his phone were lost to me. Email me, so that we can have a proper chat. I've been thinking about you constantly, lately;)
ReplyDeleteAleisha,
ReplyDeleteYou have me intrigued with the coffee grounds facial. I am for sure going to try it.
Luv,
Kay
