Hazelnut Coffee Lip Scrub
In my search for the perfect coffee cup proof lipstick, I've really been getting into liquid and matte lipsticks - but they can leave my lips a bit dry. In an effort to keep my lips soft and moisturized, I've added lip scrubs to my beauty routine. Homemade lip scrubs are super cheap and easy to make with very little effort at all. My recent favorite is this Hazelnut Coffee Lip Scrub.

How To Make Coffee Infused Oil
I recently made some coffee infused oil to use as an ingredient in some upcoming DIY coffee beauty items I'm planning and thought I'd share the process with you guys. Coffee infused oil is actually super easy to make - it's literally only a 2 step process.
