The Exfoliation Guide – Why Your Skin Loves Coffee & Hemp

When it comes to giving your skin a natural refresh, nothing beats the power of exfoliation—and our Natural Coffee & Hemp Soap is here to make your skincare routine feel like a daily spa experience. Handcrafted in Margaret River with care and intention, this soap bar brings together coffee grounds and hemp seed oil for a deep clean that doesn’t compromise on nourishment. 🌿✨

But wait—can you add coffee to soap?
Absolutely. Not only can you put coffee in soap, but we believe you should. Here’s why your skin loves it and how it works.

What is Coffee Soap?

Coffee soap is exactly what it sounds like—a soap made with real ground coffee beans! At Soap Suds & Oils, we use fresh, local coffee grounds and blend them with cold-pressed Australian hemp seed oil, olive oil, carrot juice, and a mix of pure essential oils including peppermint and patchouli.

Together, these ingredients create a soap that gently exfoliates the skin, stimulates circulation, and helps reduce the appearance of dullness. Whether you're starting your day or washing off a long one, this coffee soap bar is energising, invigorating, and totally natural.

What is Coffee Soap Good For?

Coffee soap is good for so many things! Here's why we (and our customers) can’t get enough:

  • Natural Exfoliation: The fine coffee grounds act as a physical exfoliant, helping to scrub away dead skin cells and reveal softer, smoother skin underneath.

  • Stimulating Circulation: Caffeine has been shown to stimulate blood flow, which can help improve skin tone and reduce puffiness.

  • Odour Neutralising: Great for hands after gardening or cooking, coffee helps neutralise strong odours naturally.

  • Brightening Skin: With regular use, coffee soap may help brighten your complexion, making your skin look more awake and refreshed.

And when paired with hemp seed oil, which is rich in essential fatty acids and known for its skin-soothing properties, you’ve got a powerful duo that hydrates while it exfoliates.

Coffee Soap for Face – Yes or No?

If you’re wondering whether coffee soap for face is a good idea, the answer is yes—with a little care. Our soap is gentle enough for most skin types, but like any exfoliant, we recommend using it 2–3 times a week on your face to avoid over-exfoliation.

The natural coffee grounds help buff away impurities, while hemp oil, carrot juice, and wheatgerm oil help nourish and hydrate. It’s ideal for dull, tired skin that needs a boost.
