Soft Smooth Skin with Kona Coffee Scrub

It’s November in Hawaii! Know what that means?! It’s still summer! Just kidding, we’re finally starting to have cooler nights, but the days are still hot!

One of the major complaints that people have about living in Hawaii is that there is no change of seasons. Growing up in Miami, we didn’t really have seasons either, so it doesn’t bother me at all. Plus, I love the fact that we can go to the beach year-round. For the past two years, we’ve even spent Christmas afternoon splashing in the waves.

My only gripe with year-round beach weather is constantly having to shave. Not only is it a pain to have to actually do, but salt water wreaks havoc on freshly shaved skin and burns! Ouch!

Enter Flash&Go.

Kona coffee scrub and flash&go review

Flash&Go is a permanent hair removal solution, so no more shaving (or tweezing, or waxing)! Flash&Go works with light technology, so it was virtually painless! No lie, I was scared to give it a try, in fear of it having the “snapping rubber band feeling” that people experience with laser hair removal. Thankfully, there was none of that. Plus, there are five settings, so you can find one that is most comfortable for you! Results should be visible after three to four treatments at two-week intervals.

Flash&Go is an affordable alternative to expensive hair removal and is available at Bed Bath and Beyond or Kohl’s. It works best on brown hair, with light skin, so avoid darker pigmented skin. When you buy Flash&Go at Bed Bath and Beyond or Kohl’s, you can go to keepongifting.com to receive a $25 gift card and be entered to win a trip to Aruba! The gift card can be redeemed up to three times, so that’s $75 to spend at Bed Bath and Beyond or Kohl’s.

To go along with my new smoother skin, I put together a Kona coffee sugar scrub. Scrubs are so easy to make, that it makes gifting them easy as well! I love using scrubs in the shower to help exfoliate. The coffee in this one helps your skin look firmer too!

Ingredients for an easy DIY coffee and sugar scrub

Kona Coffee Sugar Scrub

Kona Coffee Sugar Scrub

An easy to make scrub to help exfoliate your skin

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Kona coffee
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1 cup Coconut oil

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the coffee and sugar.
  2. Add your coconut oil to bowl, and mix to combine. I found it easiest to use to my hands to mix since it helped liquefy the coconut oil.
  3. Transfer your scrub to jars and affix labels, to give as gifts!

I also created a label for the lid, to go along with your coffee scrub gifts! You can download the png file here. I uploaded it to my Cricut software and cut it out of sticker paper, but you can just as easily open it up in Word
