Summer is hot, so women need to pay attention to taking care of and regenerating their skin promptly and properly. Accordingly, coffee-based exfoliating soap is currently favored by many women because of the optimal benefits it brings to the skin.
It is known that ground coffee has natural exfoliating properties to help remove dead skin on the surface as well as bring about soft, smooth and fresh skin. Coffee beans also stimulate blood circulation, helping the skin become rosier and healthier.
Ingredients to make coffee soap include 500gr of original soap, 40gr of ground coffee, 100ml of unsweetened fresh milk, 40ml of coconut oil, 20ml of olive oil, 10 - 15 drops of essential oils (lavender, mint...) and soap molds.
Next, cut the original soap into small pieces for easy melting. Put each piece of soap into a heatproof bowl and cook over water, stirring well until the soap is completely melted. Then, add ground coffee and unsweetened fresh milk.
Continue stirring until the ingredients are mixed together, then add coconut oil, olive oil and about 10 - 15 drops of essential oil to the mixture. Essential oils not only provide a pleasant fragrance but also help relax and soothe the skin.
The final step is to put the soap mixture into the soap mold. Use a spatula to smooth the surface of the cake. Leave the soap mold in a cool place until the soap hardens for 1 - 2 hours and then you can remove it from the mold.
Women can use coffee soap bars to gently massage the skin to remove dead cells and help nutrients penetrate the skin . However, women should note that they should wash their skin thoroughly after using the product to avoid causing irritation.
