How To Adjust The Texture Of Your DIY Sugar Scrub

Benefits of Cinnamon Coffee Sugar Scrub
Cinnamon is an easy, inexpensive solution to treat your dry skin. It has antifungal and antibacterial properties that can naturally combat acne. Cinnamon coffee scrub for exfoliation will help get rid of dead skin cells, revealing a more youthful appearance. Coffee grounds are also extremely beneficial in treating dark circles under the eyes due to their caffeine content. Caffeine constricts blood vessels, which reduces dark circles.
