First off, I absolutely LOVE the marketing behind Frank. The first thing you see when visiting the Frank website is, "Hey babe, I'm Frank coffee scrub." I also love the Frank slogan: 'get naked. get dirty. get rough. get clean.' {I'm such a sucker for clever wording!}
Frank promises that:
"i’ll target cellulite, stretch marks, psoriasis, varicose veins, eczema and acne with roasted and ground arabica coffee beans.
then i’ll moisturise and tone your skin with grapeseed oil, and use coconut oil to hydrate your skin and tend to any imperfections. i’ll take coconut flakes, brown sugar, jojoba beads & sea salt and gently smooth your lumps and bumps, and use vitamins & minerals to work wonders from the outside in."
Given that I like anything all natural, and since I love body scrubs + use them weekly {always before I apply self tanner}, I decided to give Frank a whirl. I purchased both the original scrub {coffee w/ sweet almond oil}, and the coconut / grapeseed coffee scrub as well.
Applying Frank is pretty easy. You get wet in the shower, apply a large handful of Frank all over your bod concentrating on problem areas, let it dry for 5-10 minutes {I multitasked & applied a hair mask at the same time}, then rinse off. Waiting for it to dry was a little weird, I just stood awkwardly in my shower the whole time. I will say that Frank is super, super messy. All I could think of while I was applying it was how much of a bitch this was going to be to completely clean up. Also, if you're not a big fan of the coffee smell, this may not be for you as my bathroom smelt like a coffeehouse for a good full day.
As for the results, that remains to be seen. The instructions on Frank instruct to use the scrub 1-2 times per week, and since I've only used him once, it's too early to tell. I will say, however, that my skin was the softest I've ever felt it after using one time. :)
