In the Kikuyu language, “Nyakio” means “woman working hard in the sunshine” and it’s a fitting name for this successful entrepreneur. When she was growing up, Nyakio Kamoche Grieco used to watch her mother mash up coffee beans and use them to make lotions and balms. Expanding on these traditional recipes, Kamoche Grieco built a skincare and home fragrance line that is sought-after worldwide by celebrities and skincare aficionados alike. The Kenyan Coffee and Sugar Body Scrub is a generous tub of dark coffee beans mixed with sugar crystals, vitamins A and E and citrus oils. Like a doubleshot of espresso for your skin, this exfoliating scrub is a heady, delicious way to wake up in the morning, containing emollient-rich citrus oils that sooth and soften skin with a pleasing fragrance to offset the rich coffee aroma. Not surprisingly, caffeine also has a stimulating, tightening effect on skin, so after a shower with this “Best Of” you’ll emerge feeling beautiful and ready to take on the day.

After thorough independent research, we selected the Nyakio Body Scrub as a 3LUXE "Best Of", to see our other two Body Exfoliator selections visit our Body Exfoliator Overview.
