What to expect
from the jar
Three steps, then done
01Wet
Start in the shower. Warm, wet skin takes the scrub best.
02Scrub
Work in circles over elbows, knees and rough areas.
03Rinse
Rinse warm, pat dry, and lock it in with moisturizer.
Use 2 to 3 times per week. Scrub before shaving for a smoother shave.
A reset you can feel
100% Robusta grinds lift dull surface cells in one pass.
Hydrates as it buffs
Shea, jojoba and cocoa butter stay on after the rinse.
A smoother shave
Scrub first and the razor glides with fewer bumps.
What is doing the work
Coffea Robusta Seed Powder
Physical exfoliation and caffeine. Robusta carries up to twice the caffeine of standard Arabica, along with higher levels of chlorogenic acid, an antioxidant.
Butyrospermum Parkii (shea butter)
Fatty acids that replenish the skin barrier, emulsified into the base so the scrub glides and rinses instead of sitting greasy.
Glycerin
A humectant that holds water at the surface, so exfoliating does not leave skin tight.

- Buffs away dull, rough texture
- Softens the look of stretch marks
- Hydrates while it exfoliates, never strips
Great body scrub
This exfoliating scrub is working wonders for my cellulite issue. It smells of coffee, which is wonderful. It feels great to use and my skin feels awesome afterwards.
The best scrub I have ever used
Never thought a coffee scrub could be this good. It has good scent with gentle texture, making my skin smooth afterward. Vietnamese coffee is the best!
Helps with rough bumpy skin
Helps with my rough skin. Would buy again.
How often should I use it?
Two to three times per week is the sweet spot. Follow with a moisturizer to lock in hydration.
Why Robusta instead of Arabica?
Vietnamese Robusta carries up to twice the caffeine of standard Arabica beans, plus higher concentrations of chlorogenic acid, an antioxidant. On damp skin that caffeine supports surface microcirculation, which is why a Robusta scrub tends to leave skin looking firmer and less puffy, and why it does more for the rough, bumpy look on upper arms and thighs than a softer, lower-caffeine grind.
Will the grounds scratch or scrape?
No. The grounds are precision-milled so the edges are smooth rather than jagged. They lift dull surface cells without stripping skin or leaving the fine micro-abrasions a coarse, uneven grind can cause.
Does it leave a greasy film or a greasy tub?
No. The shea butter is emulsified into the base rather than sitting on top of it, so the scrub glides while you work it and rinses cleanly. You keep the conditioning without an oil slick in the tub, and without stripping the skin of its own lipids.
Can I use it while pregnant?
Yes. The formula is pregnancy-safe, vegan, and free from harsh chemicals.
Is it okay for sensitive skin?
Be gentle on sensitive areas and avoid broken or irritated skin.
Can I refill the jar instead of rebuying it?
Yes. The Robusta scrub comes in a 20 oz refill pouch at $59, which is $2.95 an ounce against $3.96 buying the 10.6 oz jar. One pouch refills that jar twice over, and CoBa's puts the pouch at 86% less plastic waste than the standard jar. Add it above, or find it under Pairs Well With.
Where does the brand come from?
CoBa's Daughter is a Vietnamese-heritage body care brand, named for Cô Ba, the second daughter of Vietnamese lore. The aroma comes out of the same places the founder did: childhood summers in Đồ Sơn, and the tropical botanicals of Phú Quốc, the island off Vietnam's south coast.
Is it cruelty-free?
Yes. Nothing in the range is tested on animals. The full promise on this one: Cruelty-free, sulfate-free, paraben-free, vegan, pregnancy-safe. The ingredient list is under Ingredients at the top of the page.
What about shipping and returns?
Free US shipping on orders over $50. Unopened, unused items can be returned within 14 days of delivery.
