Coffee Body Scrub!

I just had to share what an amazing experience I had in the shower this morning! First, I will let you know that I woke up feeling a bit under-slept with no idea how I was going to wake myself up mentally for work.
So, for Halloween I had used some wash-off Sally Hanson spray tanner.
Even though I had showered and scrubbed my body with bodywash, after celebrating, for some reason I still felt like my pores had some of the tanner in them. I randomly decided to try out this coffee body scrub that my aunt made as a product for her natural skin care company-Mellow Minds. She had given it to me as a gift for Christmas last year. OMG! Was I glad I did!!!
I first lathered my body with a squeeze of my favorite bodywash (Oil of Olay- Ultra Moisture) on my loofah. I then dug out some coffee body scrub from the jar (a little goes a long way) and began applying it and exfoliating it into my skin for about 10-20 seconds per area. The aroma was like walking into a coffee shop on a busy morning and it instanly woke my mind and all my senses! With the combonation of the bodywash and coffee body scrub my skin looked and smelled like a freshly handmade espresso latte'.
(By the way... it's so fun to apply and feels cool)! I don't usually like being in the shower for too long but using it reminded me of my little sister when she was younger. She would be in the bath for hours, using all of the body washes she could; playing and making bubbly messes. I caught myself though! I knew I had to get ready for work and could always use the coffee body scrub in the next shower, and the next! Not only that, but I was wide awake by the time I had rinsed it all off!
After rinsing my hands of it, I began to wash my face and noticed that my hands had been exfoliated beyond belief! They felt so smooth! Even better... After drying off my skin was so smooth it felt like touching a newborn baby! Apply lotion afterwards and your skin transformation is complete!

So if you don't know me very well yet then you should know this one thing...

If I like something a lot, (I mean like A LOT, A LOT) then I will go on and on about it to whoever I think might benefit from it as much as I have! People who know of this tell me that I should do infomercials! So basically, I only brag if the product or service is top knotch quality! And people... this coffee body scrub definitely is! And what is even more amazing? My aunt is the creator of it!
If you haven't already tried it you must do so! I will be buying some for stocking stuffers and myself! The blue printed text in the beginning of this blog is a link to the website. Contact her from the website for odering/shipping information!
