When preparing a homemade scrubs for dry skin, work with delicate ingredients, but not as delicate as for sensitive skin. Sugar is the best grainy substance for this skin type, but it’s also possible to use ground oatmeal or salt.
Once in a while, you can use black coffee after making coffee with it, not new coffee, and not espresso because it’s too coarse. Although there are no recipes here with black coffee, it can be added to any scrub once in a while because of its amazing antioxidant properties.
For this skin type, it’s recommended to scrub once, max twice a week.
