Baths! They evoke different emotions in different people. For some, a bath is an exercise in self-indulgence (ME!)– candles, scents and oils. To most, it is just a hygienic necessity. And finally, there are those for whom it is a sacred ritual.(ME AGAIN!) I believe there is a really good use for coffee, and no, you don’t drink it!  How about using coffee for detoxification?

                                                                How it works?

Caffeine is absorbed by the skin and into the first couple layers of fat .The caffeine will then raise the metabolism of these cells causing them to use more energy. It really tightens the skin more than melts away the flab, Coffee can uplift your spirits in a moment to discharge deep-rooted tension hence promoting energy flow and restoring balance in addition to overall well being. Coffee fights fatigue and helps beautify the skin.

How to take a Coffee bath?

After having your fill of your morning coffee, used coffee grounds can be reused! Just  pour the coffee powder or the residue of coffee powder into the hot water tub and mix well. The antioxidants improve the skin tone and ward off any skin diseases or irritants.

( I usually mix coffee with water or rose water then scrub it all over my skin, leave it for 10 minutes and then soak in hot water.. rubbing it against the skin helps in reduction of cellulite)

Don’t soak for longer than 15 minutes in coffee bath, you might get a fake tan!
