Dip qtip in damp coffee grounds and cover scratched area. Tannin dye will conceal the mark. Let dry and wipe off, reapply if needed
Cellulite anyone?
Combine l cup coffee grounds with q/2 cup olive or baby oil and rub cellulite for 2 minutes. Shower and rinse. Evidentally, the caffeine will dehydrate the fat cells, reducing the bubbly look for up to 12 hours. Repeat once a week.
Blooming grounds anyone?
Work into dirt around acid loving plants. Repeat once a week. Because of the nitrogen, grounds will lower acidity and deter slugs and snails.
Brighten brunette hair
Steep 1/4 cup grounds in 3 cups hot watter. When cool pour liquid over clean wet hair. The hair will shine and keep its color.
