Good skin is where beauty starts. Growing up, I never had
full-fledged acne, but I definitely had zits. It wasn't until I changed
the way I ate that my skin completely transformed. Before, it was a
miracle if I didn't have a zit, and now it's strange when I do.
Obviously, a large part of that was due to hormones in my teenage years,
but I had blemishes in my early twenties as well.

There are a lot of natural things you can do—and feel good about using—to help your skin look great.
It's also important to do an exfoliating face scrub about once a
week—like this Homemade Coffee Face Scrub. This removes dead skin cells,
unclogs pores, and allows the skin to breathe.
Here's how to make my Homemade Coffee Face Scrub:
Mix 1/4 cup finely ground coffee beans and 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
with either almond milk or melted coconut oil (start with 3 tablespoons
and keep adding until you reach the desired consistency). gently rub
over your face (avoiding your eyes, of course), then rinse off; I use
leftovers on my back and arms as well. Just make sure the coffee beans
are finely ground to avoid scratching your face.
