If you are in need of a caffeine pick-me-up, skip the coffee shop and give your body a rush with Body Coffee. Serving up decadently scented, skin-smoothing products Stephka Profitt, the brains behind the brand, uses actual coffee in every one of her creations; from the energizing Body Oil, $22 to the hydrating Body Balm, $12. My personal favorite is the invigorating Body Polish, $35, in which coffee granules are blended with peppermint, spearmint, rosemary and orange oils into a delicious body scrub. Especially good as a wake-up call for drowsy mornings, this decadent blend provides an invigorating massage while you breathe in the intoxicating scent.Some experts contend that the coffee bean has a litany of benefits – including improved circulation and cell turnover. Did you realize coffee is also known as a free radical scavenger, a gentle exfolliant, an effective astringent and a UVA/UVB protector as well as a great cleanser? Me either! I can tell you, your skin will glow with renewed radiance. Forget about the tall, double shot, no-foam lattes and get your caffeine fix with Body Coffee.
