    Hi fellow beauty lovers! I'm Jessica, a summer editorial intern here at SELF, and this week I have ventured over to the beauty department - which is risky business for a product junkie (like me)! Recently I have stumbled into a whole new world of all-natural, do it yourself beauty. Not surprisingly, a lot of the new products I found in the beauty closet are organic. Keeping up with the eco-beauty trend on a college budget only requires a trip to the grocery store! Check out all the items I found at Whole Foods that keep my skin glowing and my hair soft this summer. Plus, the recipe for my favorite Coffee Cocoa Scrub!

    Coffee Cocoa Scrub

    • 1/2 cup used coffee grounds
    • 1/2 cup coarse brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
    • 1/2 cup coconut oil
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
