Mocha & Monk Fruit Body Scrub 500g
Coffee grounds have long been used as a mechanical exfoliant for the skin by assisting with skin exfoliation. Further to this, coffee has also shown to reduce inflammation, due to the presence of polyphenols and hydro-cinnamic acid, and assist with the reduced appearance of cellulite due to it being a natural diuretic, which allows coffee to have the ability to shrink fat cells.
Monk fruit extract is incredibly high in antioxidants, which helps with the generation of new skin cells. It also contains Vitamin C, which is known to promote collagen formation leading to stronger and firmer skin, and assists in the fading of spot and stretch marks.
High in flavonoids and omega 6, cocoa powder is able to enhance and hydrate dull looking skin. It is also high in vitamin C, and therefore stimulates collagen formation as well as assists with spot fading. The magnesium present in cocoa powder may also assist with reducing the signs of redness of the skin.
Lastly, coconut oil is wonderfully moisturising for the skin. It also possesses anti-inflammatory properties and has shown to promote wound healing.
This decadent bath scrub will make your skin-care, and self-care routine, a time you look forward to and leave you with smooth, radiant and glowing skin.
