COFFEE HAND MADE SOAP BY OWLPURE

COFFEE HAND MADE SOAP AND ITS BENEFITS

When looking for ways to detoxify skin or perhaps hide some of those annoying cellulite deposits around the legs, few people would likely turn to their coffee maker for a solution. But perhaps they should. Far from simply being the primary ingredient in the energy-boosting beverage we all know and love (most of us, anyway), coffee possesses numerous skin care and anti-aging benefits  to include:

Great for sensitive skin – In addition to helping you stay awake during the late hours of the night, the natural caffeine found in coffee has been shown to be very soothing to the skin. This makes it an excellent skin care ingredient to use in soaps designed to be gentle on sunburned skin, winter-reddened skin, or other skin sensitivities. Bathing with natural soaps and other bath products that contain coffee can also provide an alternate means of experiencing coffee’s well-known energizing sensations. Since skin is naturally porous, it can absorb coffee via your bath water the same as if you had taken a sip of brewed coffee from a mug. So, try a coffee bar soap with your next bath.

Antioxidants – Coffee is a great natural source of these age-fighting nutrients. Try using a coffee body scrub the next time you need to exfoliate or deep-cleanse, and let coffee’s natural antioxidants cleanse your pores and the deep layers of your skin of any lingering dead skin cells and environmental pollutants. If your feet are feeling a little rough, you  may also be interested in trying a Coffee Bon Bon Soap Cookie to massage and exfoliate your heels and ankles.

Masking of Cellulite – Coffee-based skin care products such as Castle Baths’ Cellu Coffee Bar act as a mild astringent, and temporarily firm up the skin around the arms and legs so that cellulite deposits are hidden. It won’t make your cellulite go away forever, but it will help make it less noticeable for a few hours.

Exfoliation – Coffee skin care products made with real coffee grounds like the above mentioned coffee soaps and scrubs make great natural exfoliation solutions given the slightly coarse texture of the grounds. You would probably expect this in a scrub since exfoliation is its main purpose, but chances are you didn’t know that a bar of soap could cleanse, moisturize, and exfoliate your skin all at the same time!

Eliminating Odors – We’re not saying that coffee soaps and scrubs double as deodorants, as that would make them drugs rather than spa and bath products according to U.S. FDA regulations, but natural coffee grounds are one of nature’s best deodorizers. Professional chefs will often keep a bar of coffee soap near their kitchen sinks and wash with it frequently between preparing meals not only for the obvious hygienic reasons but also to make sure that none of the previous dishes’ smells contaminate their next culinary creation.

Eliminating Stains – Castle Baths owner Laura Thomas’ husband swears by her coffee soap for cleaning up after working on cars and trucks all day. He says it works even better than goop for washing motor oil and grease off his hands at the end of each day. Animal lovers have also informed Laura that her coffee soaps work great for cleaning up their furry companions’ urine stains, which is why she also offers her coffee soap on Castle Baths’ pet care partner website, Purrinlot.

Skin care (and pet care) products do not necessarily have to contain actual coffee grounds in order to give you the benefits of coffee (although the ones that do give great scrubbing action.) Many coffee-based skin care products contain the essential oil of coffee, coffee butter, or the coffeeberry®.
