The Frank Body (the Coffee Exfoliator Scrub)…

   1.

A core memory is snatching a burgundy lipstick from my mother's vanity and trying it on for the first time. You can probably imagine what a wild child with a lipstick can do…

What I was doing and didn’t realize at the time was building trust in this little tube of L’Oreal.


The color and creamy texture, blue and gold packaging drew that kid in like a magnet. So as I express excitement about Frank Body's "Coffee Exfoliator Scrub", I mean alarms are sounding off just as they did back then.

It’s more than loving a product, you have to trust a brand, and reliability isn’t built in a day. But Frank Body has crafted loyalty since their inception.


They’re not too set in their ways, they’re lively and forward-thinking. Trust me!

I’m rushing through the day when the thought hits me. I neglected to restock my Benefit Brow Pen! For you brow enthusiasts out there, not having the essentials in your brow kit can ruin your life. If you know you know.



So I park in the lot of my local Ulta, unbuckle my son, and cradle him on my hip. I’m rushing in to get one thing, one turns into two… and then three… you’ve been there! My son’s fussiness began to peak so I turned toward check out and that’s when it appeared!



A pouch of millennial pink with cute block letters “Guess what? You’ll be naked in one minute.”, I thought “Wow, that’s intriguing”.



The phrase was eye-catching, good job marketing!



As my kiddo shifts the line grows smaller, until at long last an employee motions us over.



I’m about to pay when to my surprise the cashier places two items in front of me. “They’re samples”, she states. I can take them with me! A smile spreads across my face as I realize among my takeaway loot is a small millennial pink pouch.

 It could be a product with false promises of radiant, clear skin.

Coffee Exfoliator Scrub? I kept staring at this tiny pouch like it was going to disappear. I heaped the bag next to my body wash and hair care products when I returned home. How real was this product?


Was I about to use another formula derived of parabens and other artificial junk cooked up in a lab? Or could this be love?

My eyes kept glancing past the shower knobs, turning, only to catch glimpses of “softens”, and “glowing skin”. It took a few minutes into the shower when I decided to go for it.


As the package lay in my hand, water flowing, my attention ran to the ingredients list. What stood out at first wasn’t what the scrub contained, but how short the list was!

No disruptive parabens, nothing messing with hormones, and no cancer-causing agents injected for a prolonged shelf-life. I’d gone home with a combo of naturally derived oils, spices, produce, and coffee!


I’ve come across the “Natural” product. Equipped with ingredients the industry thought would sell. Rather than what my skin needed; nourishing, healthy, actually NATURAL selections.

This magical bag contains Mother Nature-approved materials. Not what a chemical company fixated on a quick profit thought was good enough. Because our skin, your skin is better than good enough. It's beautiful and deserves the proper care.

Ripping the bag open, a rush of coffee and orange aromas sprung up! I felt an instant grin emerge as I peered with disbelief. Inside this bag were actual coffee grounds!


The fact that coffee doesn't dissolve in water is a plus that makes it a natural exfoliant. It’s antimicrobial, which means it’s a great protector against germs trying to penetrate your skin, ew! Instant lifesaver.


Upon my first use I found that my skin felt radiant, and luxurious!

The scrub contains Vitamin E which assists in warding off free radicals! It also builds resilience within your skin's biome, so those with scarring and damaged skin can heal. As a mom, I can tell you that Vitamin E has helped with renewing my skin to pre-baby glory.

There’s also Sea Salt to combat breakouts, Almond Oil for hydration, and more that your body will appreciate! Your skin will feel better, even on those bad breakout days. It’s an amazing way to freshen up your skin and start the day off right. As you get ready before work or take the kids to school keep checking out how you feel.

Could this be the answer for so many people? Those in need of a naturally sourced skincare brand, that delivers results?

Being curious comes with its perks, like finding out that Frank Body isn’t here for one type of skin. They’re an inclusive brand, established in Australia with roots in the community. Frank Body gives back to those in need and has internships that help those starting out in the industry. They’re PETA-approved and get all their ingredients from the source.

You’ll be in awe of this company and what they stand for, oh and did I mention, their packaging is recyclable! Endless reasons to LOVE this brand!

Healthy skin is a beautiful thing that can change your life, and Frank Body never loses sight of that. Their products work, are good for us and the planet, and on top of everything affordable. 

They also have a wide range of products for many skin needs, I also like their berry-scented "Niacinamide Body Scrub", and "Glycolic Body Scrub".


That little girl trying on her mom's lipstick and believing in herself, in the power of feeling beautiful, can teach us all how we could feel, how you can feel. Now it's time for you and your skin to get healthy and happy!


Frank Body loves your skin, you should too.
