Frank Body Scrub

Frank coffee scrub is a very enjoyable experience. Love to use it to avoid any and all pesky ingrown hairs or layers of dead skin. The coffee itself is in small enough granules that they aren't really rough but do a good job of exfoliating. The scrub is quite dry compared to others I've used so it can get messy to use with bits falling off almost instantly. Also not so impressed with the lack of moisturizing that happens..but all in all a good scrub

So I'm not a fan of coffee. At all! But I had heard good things about this scrub so thought I'd try it. And it's amazing!! It's easy to use and leaves your skin super soft and supple.

I purchased two scrubs, original and peppermint (as a frequent gym goer I like the muscle soothing properties that peppermint has and the product promises).

PROS: After using this my skin felt so smooth, with frequent use I did notice a wee improvement with cellulite (I got this bad too #mumilfe). It's just a lovely product to use when you're needing a lil pamper and pick-me up.

CONS: I felt a bit awkward using this the first time, with dry skin it pretty much just feel off my skin so I wet my hands and my skin just slightly and then it stuck on a lot better and I felt like I was able to do a proper scrub and reap the exfoliating benefits. There is, regardless, a lot of product that falls off and therefore I would use small amounts to save product and do this standing in your bath or shower otherwise this going EVERYWHERE.

CONCLUSION: It's a lovely product, it was worth the buy and it's a great price. I do this on and off (maybe once or twice a month) when I'm feeling like a sweet lil pamper but it's a bit too messy for me to do on the regular.

I've been using Frank for a few years now and the mint scent is my favourite. It's definitely more messy than a sugar scrub but you get much better results. The coffee can be as abrasive or gentle as you like, just water it down if it's too much.

I don't know how well it works on cellulite etc but it does moisturise the skin after rinsing it off, due to the oils. Would definitely recommend and it's a very affordable product for the quality.

An ex flatmate of mine had this scrub. And I always knew when she had used it because I'd find it all through the bathroom. It took me nearly 4 years to get the courage to buy the product having had nightmares about everything being covered in coffee granules. The moment I opened the packet the smell of coffee hit me, and with the scent alone I felt energized (coffee addict, much?). I was concerned that with the price it wouldn't last me long, however a small amount in the palm of my hand covered most of the parts of my body that it needed too - so I need not have worried. I felt like a drongo waiting in the shower for a few minutes, as recommended, so I decided to keep massaging it in where need be. It felt amazing to apply, with the right amount of abrasive so it didn't feel like it was ripping my skin off, but that it felt like it was doing something. The clean up was not as bad as I had thought (thank you removable shower head!) so I have no idea how my ex flatty managed to do what she did! Afterwards, my skin felt amazing. I had to resist the urge to ask people at the famly bbq later that day to "here... feel this! Don't I feel amazing???" I love it, I cannot wait to use it again!

I love all frank products but the scrubs are definitely stand out products to me. They have a flavour for every preference and the quality of the product is beautiful. I love jumping in the shower and knowing exactly what ingredients are going on my skin and how much I'm going to benefit from them! It definitely doesn't work miracles for scars and stretch marks but it certainly helps if used weekly!

I opened the packed and tipped some into a bowl to take into the shower then struggled to shut the bag as the coffee/sugar get in the way of the zip lock closer.

This is the first dry scrub I have tried I haven’t mastered how to use it yet with out a lot of it falling onto the ground positive of this is your feet can get a good scrub aswell who needs pumice.

I found it a bit tricky to spread it over the skin as once it was on an area it didn’t move as easily as other scrubs.

I was suprise that when when I rinsed it off my skin felt amazing. I’m not too sure how much difference it makes to cellulite or stretch marks but it did well to exfoliate and leave my skin feeling soft and refreshed.

I was lucky enough to win this in a competition from instagram . I had this scrub on my wishlist for a long time. I was super excited to try it as I heard a lot of great things about it .

Packaging comes in a rectangle zip lock bag that’s made of plastic. The consistency of this coffee scrub is like sugar granules and coffee grounds mixed together. Scent smells like vanilla and coffee mixed together.

Application is easy crumbly . Seems to fall everywhere. My skin feels exfoliated well afterwards. Soft and smooth.

Price wise it’s at a fair price point. Can only be purchased from Mecca maxima. My bag lasted a few months. It solidified on the last month not sure why. I can’t see myself purchasing this. I prefer lush scrub bars instead . Less mess.
