Ingredient Spotlight

What are the benefits of recycled coffee grounds in skincare?

Coffee grounds gently exfoliate, boost circulation, and may reduce the appearance of cellulite. They’re also packed with antioxidants that help fight premature aging.

How does turmeric help my skin?

Turmeric has powerful anti-inflammatory and brightening properties. It helps calm acne, fade dark spots, and even out skin tone.

What does shea butter do for my skin?

Shea butter deeply moisturizes, soothes irritation, and supports skin elasticity. It's a must-have for dry or sensitive skin.

Is coconut oil good for my skin?

Yes! Coconut oil hydrates and softens the skin. However, it may clog pores for acne-prone skin—so we balance it with lighter oils like jojoba.

Why do you use tallow?

Tallow (from grass-fed cows) is rich in skin-loving vitamins and closely resembles human sebum. It nourishes, protects, and repairs the skin barrier naturally.

Are essential oils safe in skincare?

When used correctly—absolutely. We carefully dilute essential oils in safe ratios for topical use. However, we recommend patch-testing if you have sensitive skin.

What’s jojoba oil good for?

Jojoba oil balances skin’s natural oil production, making it ideal for oily, dry, and combination skin types. It absorbs quickly and won’t clog pores.

How do Epsom salts benefit my skin?

Epsom salts help detoxify the skin, soothe sore muscles, and reduce inflammation. They’re great for body scrubs and relaxing soaks.

How to use.

How often should I exfoliate with coffee scrubs?

1–2 times per week is perfect for sloughing off dead skin and keeping your glow fresh.

Can I use your products on my face?

Many of our products are gentle enough for facial use. Always read the label and patch-test first—especially with exfoliants or essential oils.

How do I store my products?

Keep them in a cool, dry spot, and avoid letting water into containers. For best results, use within 3–6 months of opening.

Safety & Sustainability

Are your products safe for sensitive skin?

Most of our formulas are designed for all skin types, but everyone’s skin is different. We recommend a patch test before full use.

Do you use animal-derived ingredients?

Some products include grass-fed tallow, chosen for its skin compatibility and ethical sourcing. We also offer vegan alternatives.

Are your products pregnancy-safe?

Many are safe, but some essential oils may not be recommended during pregnancy. Consult your doctor and check individual product labels.

Is your packaging eco-friendly?

Yes! We use recyclable, reusable, or compostable packaging wherever possible to align with our zero-waste mission.
