Coffee. Most love it. I didn’t up until recently. I have no idea what came over me. While I’ve always loved the smell of coffee beans, I just didn’t like the taste. My only prior experience with coffee was when I was about
14 and I tried some at about 3pm and there was only about 1/2 “ left in the cup. You can pretty much imagine my reaction. Not even a few Doritos would wipe away that taste in my mouth. Fast forward to 2 months ago. While I’ve been in Starbucks quite a few times, I just never wanted to order anything until one day, when with a friend, I ordered the Vanilla Soy Latte. Wow, now I am a full convert and even have my own personal french press machine at home! So when this ASPARA AROMATICS Kopi Scrub ($18/10oz @ aspara-aromatics.com) came across my desk recently, I immediately opened it and inhaled deeply. Mmmm. This one uses Sumatra coffee grounds from Indonesia and a blend of salts, Shea Butter and plant oils. If you’re trying to cut down on your coffee consumption, maybe a full on scrub with this one will do the trick!

I once heard that Halle Berry places coffee grounds on the back of her thighs and rear to get rid of her cellulite (albeit temporarily). I did this once but the texture of the beans was very coarse and so it was an unpleasant experience. However, I am willing to give this another go though I think I rather use this product and not grind the beans myself again.

I don't drink coffee too often, but this sounds delish even if you don't eat it.
