A fully caffeinated foot scrub that gives dry skin the boot.
Beyond its obvious energy boosting benefits, coffee has a host of other healing benefits. Did you know that coffee grinds can help alleviate callused feet? It’s true! This coffee foot scrub recipe teams up ground coffee with sea salt and corn meal for a trio of exfoliants that attack dead, dry skin. The menthol in the peppermint oil has antiseptic and anti-fungal properties while the mingling aromas give your spirits a buzz.
Here’s what you need:
- 4 tablespoons ground coffee
- 3 tablespoons coarse sea salt
- 3 tablespoons corn meal
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 drops of peppermint oil
Here’s what you do:
Mix all the ingredients together into a paste. Massage the scrub onto feet paying close attention to heels and callused spots. Let the paste sit for 10 minutes while enjoying a cup of java and then rinse off with warm water. Finish with your favorite coffee-themed nail polish like Coffee Break from Orly.
