Gardener's Coffee Soap: A Naturally Exfoliating Bar for Hardworking Skin

Sometimes your skin needs a little more than an ordinary cleanse.

Whether you've spent the day working in the garden, tackling projects around the house or simply want a little extra exfoliation in your body-care routine, Sahara Naturals Organic Gardener's Coffee Soap was made for those moments.

This distinctive bar combines ground coffee and finely ground apricot kernels with plant-based oils and pure essential oils for a cleansing experience that's anything but ordinary.

What Makes Gardener's Coffee Soap Different?

The secret is in the texture.

Gardener's Coffee Soap contains ground coffee and finely ground apricot kernels, which give the bar its naturally scrubby texture. As you wash, these ingredients provide physical exfoliation to help remove buildup and loosen dead surface skin cells.

That makes it an especially nice bar for areas that can become rough or need a little extra attention, such as hands, elbows and feet.

And despite the name, you certainly don't have to be a gardener to enjoy it.

Coffee + Apricot Kernels: A Naturally Scrubby Combination

Coffee might be something you usually associate with your morning cup, but ground coffee also gives this soap part of its characteristic texture.

Finely ground apricot kernels provide additional exfoliation, creating a bar designed to cleanse and buff the skin at the same time.

Because this is a physical exfoliating soap, there's no need to scrub aggressively. Let the texture of the bar do the work and use gentle pressure, particularly if your skin is sensitive.

Made With a Blend of Plant-Based Oils

Exfoliation isn't the whole story.

Gardener's Coffee Soap is made with a blend of coconut, sunflower, safflower and jojoba oils, along with glycerin. Together, these ingredients create a bar that cleanses while complementing the exfoliating ingredients in the formula.

Jojoba oil in particular is a familiar ingredient throughout natural skin and body care, while glycerin acts as a humectant, helping attract moisture.

The result is a bar designed to provide that satisfying scrubby cleanse without making exfoliation the only focus of your routine.

Wait...Does It Smell Like Coffee?

Here's where Gardener's Coffee Soap may surprise you.

Although it contains ground coffee, its aromatic blend includes lemon, orange, lavandin and patchouli essential oils.

The combination creates a fresh citrus and botanical aroma rather than making this simply a coffee-scented soap.

It's one of the details that makes Gardener's Coffee Soap a little different from what you might expect when you first hear its name.

Who Is Gardener's Coffee Soap For?

Despite its name, Gardener's Coffee Soap isn't reserved for people with green thumbs.

Consider adding it to your routine if you enjoy textured bar soaps, physical exfoliation or a more invigorating body-cleansing experience.

It can be especially useful when your hands or body feel like they need more than a basic wash.

If your skin is particularly sensitive, however, a less exfoliating bar may be a better choice for everyday cleansing.

How to Use Gardener's Coffee Soap

Wet the soap and work it into a lather between your hands or with a washcloth. Apply the lather to damp skin and gently massage before rinsing thoroughly with warm water.

When using the bar specifically for exfoliation, keep the pressure gentle. Physical exfoliation doesn't require aggressive scrubbing.

And, as with any new skincare product, discontinue use if irritation occurs.

More Than a Soap for Gardeners

Gardener's Coffee Soap may have been inspired by hardworking hands and skin, but you don't need to spend your weekends digging in the garden to appreciate a good exfoliating bar.

With ground coffee, apricot kernels, plant-based oils and a fresh blend of pure essential oils, it's an easy way to add a little exfoliation to an otherwise simple cleansing routine.

Ready for a scrubby kind of clean? Explore Sahara Naturals Organic Gardener's Coffee Soap and give hardworking skin a little extra attention.
