we’d love to have the same softness as our most beautiful satin lingerie, wouldn’t we?
So there’s nothing better than exfoliation to get your skin looking its best!
A beauty essential, it’s even the gesture and ritual to adopt for beautiful, soft, luminous skin. It eliminates dead cells, activates cell regeneration and lymph and therefore our blood circulation!
Today I’d like to show you how to do it yourself. Quick, economical and environmentally friendly, coffee grounds are my favourite scrub!
It contains coffee grounds, vegetable oil and that’s all!
Caffeine:
As you may have noticed, dear
Olala Beauty
caffeine is an active ingredient regularly found in beauty products, not only for the body and its anti-cellulite properties, but also for the face, as a formidable decongestant and tensor. With coffee grounds, you get a super-caffeinated scrub, and we love it!
Vegetable oil:
We choose it according to our desires, varying not only the scents but also the virtues!
Personally I made this one with coconut oil, I love its irresistible smell, it’s an oil that suits all skin types and especially dry skin!
If you have very sensitive skin, you can choose timeless sweet almond oil, or jojoba oil for oily skin!
For skin with atopic tendencies and to combat cellulite, the lesser-known chaulmoogra oil will be your best ally!
Recipe:
Instead of throwing your coffee grounds in the garbage can, just put them in a bowl and add the vegetable oil!
It’s better to make sure that our coffee is organic, but what if we don’t drink coffee? Or if you’re a capsule fan?
Well, simply take an organic ground coffee and cover it with oil. You’ll need just a little more oil to moisten your coffee completely, and it’s ready!
Get in the shower and massage the skin, always moving upwards from the bottom of the body! Take care to insist on areas where the skin is thickest, such as the knees or heels, and on padded areas 😉
Don’t hesitate to do the same for the face, using gentle movements, and the same for the lips to remove any dead skin, and you’re done!
After a scrub, you never forget to moisturize, do you? Well, there’s no need! As the oil does not mix with water, it leaves a thin oily film on the skin, making it even softer and more luminous. Dab dry with a towel!
You’re soft and moisturized for the day!
Tip: Don’t worry about your pipes – on the contrary, coffee grounds make them healthier!
The alternative: If you really prefer to buy a ready-made product, here are the products I recommend:

Or this one from monoprix in the instant powder range:
You can find all the products mentioned above in organic stores, in the kitchen or beauty sections, for most vegetable oils. For lesser-known oils, you can, for example, buy them from Aroma-Zone.
