Pros:

-baby soft skin
-clears breakouts

Cons:

none that I can think of, other than it's messy

I have never in my life written a review for anything, but I feel so strongly about this remedy that I can't NOT share it with anyone and everyone. I make a pot of coffee every day - not because I always drink coffee, but because now I can't wait to take a shower and bring the used coffee grounds into the shower with me. I spoon the used grounds into a cup and in the shower I scrub my whole body with the grounds--I've never added anything to it. My skin has NEVER felt more amazing, and my acne has cleared DRASTICALLY. I can't emphasize enough how amazing my skin feels every morning that I use this. I would recommend to use it in the shower though as opposed to using it as a scrub with clothes on. It makes your shower a little messy, but all of the grounds can be washed away fairly easily. Seriously - TRY THIS. People have even noticed that my skin is clearer and glowing.

Pros:

Dried up acne

Dude, trust me on this one. It's so stupendously good.
This works amazingly. The coffee exfoliates and I think hydrates a bit, which leaves my skin so so so soft. I'm not even exaggerating when I say its 3 so's soft. I use this every third day (basically whenever I shower) and use it after I do a quick clean with baking soda. The baking soda and this TOGETHER works really well, but this has worked super well on it's own. I use coffee grounds from already brewed coffee, as they are moist and have opened up to release the caffeine and great smell. My acne is almost completely clear excluding the occasional breakout, but nothing compared what it used to be. This treatment is cheap and easy, and works so well you need to try it at least once or twice. It is so good I can't believe that everyone is still not using this! Take care :-)

YES!! MY KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR!!
TRY THIS. A MIRACLE! I'd almost given up and I was ashamed of my skin - I had to even almost cancel dinner plans one night because I was afraid of being judged but mostly feeling ugly and less confident and just DIRTY... PIMPLES AND REDNESS MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I'M UNCLEAN!... but NOW with this recently, as a scrub alone or combined with plain greek yogurt as a mask (TIP: ALSO YOU CAN ADD IN TURMERIC POWDER AND LEMON JUICE FOR EXTRA LIGHTENING AND GLOW) - FREAKING AMAZING - I GET THAT CELEBRITY SKIN! Glowy and clear! YES! AND I AM ACNE- PRONE... I also do take 100 mg doxycycline every night and use Retin-A every two or few days - BUT THIS IS AMAZING ON ITS OWN OR WITH OTHER HELPFUL ACNE ROUTINES!!!!!

Hey! Sorry I never saw this to respond! My skin had gotten really bad again when I got to a super stressful period of my year, and therefore, I went back on an antibiotic (this time minocycline) which has Really been helping, but then I have been left with still some breakouts cropping up and acne SCARS. I am now, months later starting to again use the coffee grounds on my face, ONLY combined with lemon juice or with a little bit of pure yogurt as well. I do this about two or three times a week, because the rest of the time I've been using my Origins Clear Improvements mask, and have seen good results with that for both helping with my breakouts and overall getting rid of the redness (Kaolin clay can help with that). I hope this can maybe still be helpful - not sure if you need the advice anymore, but best of luck to you!!! :)

Pros:

- immediately after doing my face looks better

Cons:

- none

I just started using this today but what I can say is that when I usually exfoliate after i'm done I can't really tell I've done anything to it except scrub it, it's different with this ; like my face is healthier. I'm gonna keep on using it, maybe more often. Here's my recipe : - Coffee grinds (used/unused) - Egg white Not only am I exfoliating but also tightening the pores with the egg whites. :) Try it !

Pros:

It really works
Doesn't take to long to do
You have the supplies already in your house (most likely)
Smells good(:

Cons:

Kinda messy so make sure to do it in the bathroom.

I got this from [link removed] and fell in love !!!! The version on there website included cocoa powder which smelled so good with the coffee(: 4 Tbsp. finely ground espresso or coffee beans (I use my own grinder, but already ground coffee and even instant coffee work, too) 4 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder (your basic Hersheys is perfect here) 8 Tbsp. dairy product. Choose whole milk, heavy cream, yogurt (must be unflavored!), almond milk or coconut milk. Use less dairy if you like a thicker paste. Substitutions are allowed: Try an egg instead of dairy if you are an egg mask lover, or substitute oils, such as olive oil, extra virgin coconut oil or almond oil if you have dehydrated skin. If using oils, halve the amount or it will be too runny. 2 Tbsp. honey (if you have dry skin) or lemon juice (if you have oily skin) [link removed]

Pros:

I have been using this as a scrub for 3 consecutive days in which:
1) Reduced the redness of my face
2) Dried my pimples
3) Made my face brighter and smoother

Cons:

A bit messy!

It's awesome, just add a bit of water or your favorite face cleanser with the grounded coffee and you're good to go...scrub away lol PS. Don't scrub hard, be gentle!

Pros:

. Smells awesome. (i've tried not to lick my face but find it hard sometimes)
Tightens face a bit in the good way.
Makes skin soft!

Cons:

It is messy, if you put too much water you'll have coffee dripping off your face.....

It's kinda rough. I'd be carefull if you have REALLY senstive skin.. because it might be too hard on it.

I mixed about two tablespoons of coffee grounds and eyed the water till i got a dark dark black look to it..... (Don't add too much water *flails* or you'll have coffee dripping off your chin...) then again..if that doesn't disgust you..grab a cup. I found that my skin was really soft after i did this. I mean REALLY SOFT... I started to pair this with the seaweed mask.. It kills that fishy oder left from the seaweed and i find the seaweed is a tad drying (At least to my skin) and it brings back the softness. I'm amazed how soft it is....i mean...it's like baby soft...possibly softer..my skin is never this soft I <3 this.

Softest Skin Ever
I came across this body scrub, I believe it was something like "You make me Coco?" I'm not sure, but anyways I always try to find a more natural method for getting similar results. So I decide to use coffee grounds at home, and I have to say it's very refreshing! I do this once a week, and I honestly always look forward to it. I like to begin by dry brushing my skin since it's known to increase blood flow, and apparently get rid of cellulite (although I have yet to see results). Then I like to go into my shower and scrub it, and you'll want to use it everywhere. You will immediately feel the softness and cleanliness. To conclude, I enjoy putting olive oil onto my skin and it just tops everything off. Trust me you guys, you'll feel as though you have returned from a day at the spa. It's calming, and purifying and just overall amazing. Now, I've read that it is not recommended that you use coffee grounds on your face although I do, when I do, I've had great results. It de-puffs your eyes and brightens and clarifies your skin. Overall, it's a great regimen. One I have grown to love and its inexpensive!
