Homemade Coffee Oil Recipe for Skin Rejuvenation and Anti-Aging

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup organic coffee grounds (fresh or used and dried)
• 1 cup carrier oil (such as coconut oil, olive oil, or sweet almond oil)
• 1 teaspoon vitamin E oil (optional, for added anti-aging benefits)
• A few drops of essential oil (optional, like lavender or frankincense for extra skin nourishment)

Instructions:

1. Infusion Method (Slow Heat):

1. In a double boiler or a heat-safe glass jar placed in a pot of simmering water, combine the coffee grounds and carrier oil.
2. Heat on low for 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally to infuse the oil with coffee's beneficial compounds. Avoid high heat to preserve nutrients.
3. Once done, let the oil cool slightly.
4. Strain the mixture using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove the coffee grounds.
5. Pour the strained oil into a clean glass jar or bottle and store in a cool, dark place.

2. Cold-Infusion Method (Longer Process):

1. Add coffee grounds and carrier oil to a glass jar, ensuring the coffee is fully submerged.
2. Seal the jar and let it sit in a cool, dark place for 2-4 weeks, shaking it gently every few days.
3. After the infusion period, strain and store as mentioned above.
