An easy recipe for coconut coffee foot scrub from The Umstead Hotel and Spa
By Carla Snuggs

August is National Coffee Month, and a great time to put those grounds to good use. Carolyn Doe, spa director at The Umstead Hotel and Spa (Cary, N.C.) has whipped up a DIY Coconut Coffee Foot Scrub recipe to soothe flip flop-weary feet at home.

The rich blend of antioxidant-filled coffee and moisture-locking coconut oil, combined with the refreshing scent of vanilla extract, is a perfect combination of natural ingredients to remove and repair rough skin.

Coconut Coffee Foot Scrub Recipe

1 cup Virgin Coconut Oil
½ cup Favorite Ground Coffee
1-2 tsp Vanilla Extract

Method
Blend ingredients together. Prepare a tub of warm soapy water and soak feet for 10 minutes. While soaking, apply 1 teaspoon of the scrub to feet in a circular motion to exfoliate the dead skin away. Rinse feet in warm water and pat dry.

Mixture can also be used as a body scrub in the shower. Store leftovers for later use in an air- tight container at room temperature.

Thank you, The Umstead Hotel and Spa! Can’t wait to try this!
