And you know what that means – it’s time to get beach, shorts, and sundress ready. During the winter, I have a tendency to neglect my skin a bit and often I find that by this time of year it is in dire need of some TLC. After trying out a few different coffee scrubs, I was inspired to create my own coffee-based scrub right at home – and I was thrilled to find that it’s super easy (though, a little messy) to do.   vancouver style blog, vancouver fashion blog,vancouver blog, vancouver fashion bloggers, best vancouver fashion blog, fashion blog, vancouver style blogger, vancouver style bloggers, vancouver lifestyle blog, vancouver travel blog, canadian fashion blog, canadian style blog, canadian travel blog,popular fashion blog, popular style blog, bree aylwin, fashion styles, vancouver fashion blogger, top fashion blogs, popular fashion blogs, top style blogs, diy coffee scrub, diy coffee scrub recipe, how to reduce cellulite, how to reduce stretch marksvancouver style blog, vancouver fashion blog,vancouver blog, vancouver fashion bloggers, best vancouver fashion blog, fashion blog, vancouver style blogger, vancouver style bloggers, vancouver lifestyle blog, vancouver travel blog, canadian fashion blog, canadian style blog, canadian travel blog,popular fashion blog, popular style blog, bree aylwin, fashion styles, vancouver fashion blogger, top fashion blogs, popular fashion blogs, top style blogs, diy coffee scrub, diy coffee scrub recipe, how to reduce cellulite, how to reduce stretch marksvancouver style blog, vancouver fashion blog,vancouver blog, vancouver fashion bloggers, best vancouver fashion blog, fashion blog, vancouver style blogger, vancouver style bloggers, vancouver lifestyle blog, vancouver travel blog, canadian fashion blog, canadian style blog, canadian travel blog,popular fashion blog, popular style blog, bree aylwin, fashion styles, vancouver fashion blogger, top fashion blogs, popular fashion blogs, top style blogs, diy coffee scrub, diy coffee scrub recipe, how to reduce cellulite, how to reduce stretch marks Coffee scrubs are known to help reduce the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks.  This coffee-coconut oil mixture energizes your skin, encourages blood flow, and smooths the look of those stubborn stretch marks and can even improve the firmness of your skin.

 

When should you use this DIY Coffee Coconut Oil Body Scrub?

You can use this coffee scrub at any time during your day, but I personally like using it best in the morning. The reason I like using coffee scrubs in the morning is that the scent of coffee is so invigorating and it really does wake you up! It’s such a great way to start the day – especially if you’re like me and feel quite groggy in the morning.    vancouver style blog, vancouver fashion blog,vancouver blog, vancouver fashion bloggers, best vancouver fashion blog, fashion blog, vancouver style blogger, vancouver style bloggers, vancouver lifestyle blog, vancouver travel blog, canadian fashion blog, canadian style blog, canadian travel blog,popular fashion blog, popular style blog, bree aylwin, fashion styles, vancouver fashion blogger, top fashion blogs, popular fashion blogs, top style blogs, diy coffee scrub, diy coffee scrub recipe, how to reduce cellulite, how to reduce stretch marks

Is the scrub messy to use?

Yes, just like using any coffee scrub – it’s a bit messy to use. I always find that after using a coffee scrub that I end up wanting to do a quick shower scrub down in order to ensure all the coffee washes away.    

DIY Coffee Coconut Oil Body Scrub

What you’ll need:

Ground Coffee (I used 1 cup) Salt or Sugar (use the equal amount to coffee) Coconut Oil (1/2 cup – liquid form) Essential Oils (I used Saje Lavender Essential Oil)
 
   

Instructions:

Simply mix it all together! This really is the easiest DIY project you’ll ever do because there is truly only one step. You mix it together – oh, and you put it into a container and place it in the fridge.  After that, you have a product you can use whenever you feel like your skin is in need of a little refresher. Best of all, because this scrub also contains coconut oil, you actually don’t dry or strip your skin as you do with many other body exfoliants and instead it really moisturizes the skin so that you’ll feel silky smooth!  The coconut oil helps to further smooth and soften your skin while the coffee sloughs away any icky dry skin and improves blood flow.

    Can you use already brewed coffee grounds or do they need to be dry?

“I want to grow seeing you smiling” 💛 I s “I want to grow seeing you smiling” 💛 

I saw so many powerful messages today from people sharing their "why" — the reason behind why they were there and standing as one of the "fringe". Here's a few reasons that I saw and heard: 

- Why? Because I want my child to grow seeing smiles and smiling
- Why? Because I miss my family and loved ones.
- Why? Because my lived experience tells me not to trust what is happening right now. 
- Why? Because I believe in our informed consent principles.
- Why? Because I believe in choice without coercion. 
- Why? Because I’ve lost my job as a healthcare worker. 
- Why? Because I’ve lost my business. 
- Why? Because I’ve lost my home. 
- Why? Because I’ve been injured. 
- Why? Because I think there’s a better way forward for everyone. 
- Why? Because I chose what I knew was best for me and I want everyone else to be free to do that as well. 

Everyone has a unique reason why, and it’s important to take a moment to recognize and acknowledge them. Now is the time. Let's come together and be united💛

I want to be clear: I am not trying to dismiss the I want to be clear: I am not trying to dismiss the loss and illness that so many have experienced from C. It has been an extraordinarily hard two years for many, many people, for all sorts of different reasons and it is not my aim to diminish any of them. What I am trying to express is that we are at a breaking point societally. 

If we continue to move forward with coercion, mandates, restrictions, and divisive passports based on fear (or a hope) then we risk setting precedents that we may not be comfortable leaning on in the future. We also risk dividing our society to such a degree that may make it difficult, if not impossible, to ever bring back together. Despite all of the debates, arguments, and comments made over the last few years, I do not believe that deep down Canadians want to live in a state of perpetual division.

If this is not the time to unite and end these mandates, when is? It is our systems that are broken, and they have been broken for a very long time. We all know this. Let's unite and fix them, and more together 💛

Creating our own peace ☮️

Nearing the end of 2021, one thing that Jer & I wanted to prioritize was creating our own peace. Life has been exhausting for the last long while and, like most people, our mental well-being suffered from the current state of Canada. We knew we needed to make some changes, add something to our lives to remove us (even temporarily, now and again) from the chaos that is now the “new normal”. So, we began making road trips around BC to find our very own home away from home. I feel immensely lucky to now have this remote sanctuary in our lives. It is somewhere we can go when life gets too overwhelming, somewhere we could live eventually if life continues to be overwhelming. In just the first few days here, I’ve already felt a shift in my mindset. I feel incredibly lucky to have this place and already it feels like home. 💖
✨Growing pains✨ . . . 2021, for many of us, w ✨Growing pains✨
. . . 
2021, for many of us, was a year of growth. Some of it was painful, most of it inspiring, and all of it necessary. Sometimes growing means needing to shed the older versions of ourselves and sometimes that can be difficult or cause a loss in friendships or relationships. It can be challenging - believe me, I get it. But, anything or anyone who couldn't respect your growth then won't respect your future growth. While growth can be painful it is not nearly as painful as the dull consistent ache of feeling stuck.
