Natural Coffee Beauty Products from Head to Toe

I love coffee. No, I mean I really love coffee. The smell, the taste, the caffeine – there’s nothing bad about this wonderful creation of nature. It wakes me up and at the same time calms me down – it’s a staple in my life, so naturally I’ve been trying to incorporate it in my beauty routine as well!

Anyway, I’ve been trying out different coffee body scrubs, coffee scented body creams and coffee soaps. I haven’t quite found my perfect soap yet, but I think I found the scrub and cream.

Here’s what I’m currently loving, and a small list of products I’m looking for and brands I’m eyeing to try.

skinnskinny Organic Black Coffee Body Scrub

I love the authentic, black coffee fragrance. Smells just like brewing a fresh cup. It’s abrasive and makes me feel clean and polished, and the bathroom is heavy with the scent of coffee beans as I scrub. It rinses off easily and leaves a nice layer of soft, light oil that I love. My only issue? The price: while 3.33 an ounce isn’t bad, I use a ton of body scrub per session so I can go through a jar of this very quickly. You can read my review on it right here!

100% Pure Organic Coffee Bean Eye Cream

Before this, the only other eye cream I’ve ever tried were from Korean brands like Skin Food and Etude House. They were ok, but didn’t stand out. I got a small 0.5 tube of 100% Pure’s cult fave, their coffee bean eye cream, about 5 months ago and I’m still not done with it! I use it twice a day and boy is it amazing! My undereye circles don’t look as dark anymore and the smell is incredible!

100% Pure Cocoa Kona Coffee Body Butter

I just picked this up because I’ve already tried (and am currently using) the body cream of the same scent. (See here for a review.) It’s even better smelling than the cream, if that’s even possible! A tiny bit is all that’s needed to noticeably soften rough areas like knees, elbows and heels. And the scent lasts a long time, especially when layered with the body cream! I know I’ll be using this more often during the winter.

I’ve also tried the following:

• Whole Truth Solutions Coffee & Cigarettes Soap
• Indigo Wild Zum Coffee Almond Soap
• 100% Pure Cocoa Kona Coffee Body Wash
• 100% Pure Cocoa Kona Coffee Body Scrub

Right now, I’m looking for:

• Handmade coffee soap
• Coffee lip balm
• Coffee hair conditioner

 There are products I’m curious about trying: Crazy Rumors Coffee Bean Mocha Lip Balm in Perk
b3 Barista Bath & Body Cafe Mocha Bath Bar In my effort to save money, I’ve been trying to make my own coffee scrubs. Here’a a few for you to try as well!
