*This post is a collaboration with Rabbit Nose Apothecary and I was gifted the items I talk about in the post, but all words and opinions are my own.

Discovering Rabbit Nose Apothecary has been a dream come true. Not only are all of their products 100% vegan and not tested on animals, but they also only contain organic ingredients that are natural and don’t damage our planet. What’s more, is that they use eco-friendly packaging - i.e. no plastic - just glass jars. They also tick the box of being a small, independent and local business. It really is a win-win all around.

Rabbit Nose Apothecary Two Gingers Coffee Orange Exfoliating Body Scrub

The Two Gingers Coffee Orange Scrub caught my eye as it is made from recycled coffee grounds from the new Hull-based coffee spot, Two Gingers. I’ve already popped in a couple of times for a brew and can safely say I was impressed, but how do the beans shape up when used in a scrub?

Very well, indeed. As I explained in my own DIY coffee scrub recipe, caffeine is great for circulation and improving the appearance of cellulite. I pretty much used my DIY version throughout the whole of summer.

Rabbit Nose's scrub is an absolute delight to use. Made from only three ingredients - that's the coffee, organic granulated white sugar and coconut oil - it gives you a deeper cleanse and rinses down my plug hole a lot easier than my oat scrub.

On top of this, the scrub has a delicious scent of zesty orange, which leaves you feeling invigorated and squeaky clean after a long day at work. I love to use this after I shave or go to the gym as I find it really helps my quite pale, chubby legs to look firmer and feel nicer.
