[armeen26]

I love your hair!! And your eyes are so cute. Jealous LOL ;)

[SagaciousSofia]

@armeen26 Thanks :)

[MakeupAppleCake]

You are so fucking fit! Jesus! XD

[SagaciousSofia]

@MakeupAppleCake Haha, I don't really go out of my way to be fit or anything. I probably should, I'm out of shape. I don't get much exercise other than walking a lot from class to class.

Although, I recently got a job go-go dancing, so I am getting more exercise nowadays.

[Nutarei]

I. Fricking. Love. Your. Hair. If you haven't already made one I think you should do a tutorial on how you get it like that :D

[SagaciousSofia]

@Nutarei Haha it's a wig, but I can definitely do a tutorial on how to style hair. I have no professional experience as a stylist, but definitely a lot of trial and error experience since I really love doing strange things to my hair. This is pretty easy to do with some hair spray or hair wax, whichever you prefer.

[peachcupcake20]

can you use it as a lip scrub?

[SagaciousSofia]

@peachcupcake20 You definitely can, although it does dry your skin. I'd recommend sugar for the scrub on the lips instead since it's less irritating. The skin on the lips isn't very thick.

[SagaciousSofia]

@peachcupcake20 Still use the oil, just sub in sugar :)

[Thefluffieful]

This Is awseome

[TiaraofTears]

that's pretty cool. :D ur preeeeeetttyyyyyy!!!!

[lovexoxo81]

I love your hair it is sooooooo my favorite color :) :D

[oldkburgmann]

OMG... I LOVE your hair! <3

[poochie01ful]

Is your name Sofia ?

If it is, then hunny, we have the same name . : )

[mcrfan1324]

Does it stain your skin?/Make it darker?

[SagaciousSofia]

@mcrfan1324 I've never had that problem. When you rub the coffee grounds on your face, it will look brown like coffee does after it is brewed, however, if your rinse well, it should be fine. 

[mcrfan1324]

@SagaciousSofia Thank you for your answer :)

[SagaciousSofia]

@mcrfan1324 Sorry, you* not your.

[Simpleplanqueen5]

@mcrfan1324 i find out after I do it it even my skin out sort of orangeish tan but then my face feel weird...it feels like your teeth after you eat popcorn..but on your skin...does that make sense?

[mcrfan1324]

@Simpleplanqueen5 yeah, it does... I am really pale and afraid it would be visible :/

[SagaciousSofia]

@Simpleplanqueen5 I've never had any trouble with it staining my skin, although I wonder if maybe it has to do with the coffee I use? The oil definitely rests on the skin for a while, and it feels weird. It is great as a moisturizer, but can take some effort to get off right away.

[catawba909]

Michelle Phan wanna be.

[xxIvyLightxx]

@catawba909 Just because she's making a DIY tutorial for a face/body scrub? That's ridiculous. I'm a fan of Michelle but she's not the only beauty guru on Youtube. There's no need to bash people just because they come up with similar ideas; it's petty.

[SagaciousSofia]

@catawba909 I do like Michelle Phan. I definitely admire the style of her videos. They are clean, classic, and easy to follow. However, I don't aspire to be Michelle Phan. We are incredibly different as far as people go, and I have no desire to pretend to be her.

If you think that my making facial expressions makes me a Michelle Phan wanna be, you have a lot of people to confront on youtube. I am fairly certain that facial expressions are pretty universal amongst people.

[cookiemonster2251]

Lol you look like a mad scientist xD it's not suppose to be mean or offensive it's not in a bad way (:

[MotherEarth2010]

I love your hair and look! and thanks for the tip! :D

[Janet2752Lizzy]

you're so gorgeous :)

[MelissaTicky]

I got a wicked bad rash after doing this... switch out the oil for peppermint oil if you have oily skin.

[SagaciousSofia]

Sorry to hear that, although, I hear if you have oily skin, it is best to make adjustments to avoid oils altogether.

[03UltraFanGirl03]

oh my god I love your hair. O_O

[SagaciousSofia]

@03UltraFanGirl03 Haha thanks, it's a wig :) At the time, my hair was bright red and black. Now I have dreads. It's really easy to find this wig on ebay by searching "blue cosplay wig."

[03UltraFanGirl03]

@SagaciousSofia whoa, coolio will deff check it out :D atm I have a mohawk XD

[SagaciousSofia]

@03UltraFanGirl03 Sounds neat! I always wanted to try a mohawk. Maybe someday, right now, I am enjoying my dreads. :)

[mizzgabrielle123]

i luv ur blue hair :D

[SagaciousSofia]

@mizzgabrielle123 Thank you :)

[miavonni]

Thank you! btw you are a doll!

[blackasnight333]

I put an extra spoonful of olive oil, and the scrub made my face so soft. :D

[SagaciousSofia]

@blackasnight333 I'm glad that it worked for you! I'd recommend not using this scrub more than once every few days though, since the coffee can dry out your skin. Of course, the extra olive oil should help prevent this from happening, but you also don't need to exfoliate your skin too often.

[blackasnight333]

@SagaciousSofia Sadly, I wont be using it anymore, because I broke out in a rash on my face an hour after using it D: Not that its bad, I think its just not right for my skin </3

[SagaciousSofia]

@blackasnight333

That's really odd O_O I've never heard of anyone having a reaction like that. Do you have an allergy to coffee? I'm sorry it didn't turn out well for you. =/

[blackasnight333]

@SagaciousSofia No Im not, but I think it was because I had used 6 scrubs in 2 hours XD

[MsOutspokenOutcast]

What purpose does the coffee serve other than it being an exfoliating agent?

[SagaciousSofia]

@MsOutspokenOutcast

Other than the fact that coffee is very coarse and works well for exfoliating, it has various benefits for the skin. There is a lot of debate as to whether or not you can absorb coffee through your skin, so it is possible that you might get a perk of energy from scrubbing yourself with coffee grounds.

Coffee also contains anti-oxidants, and is said to reduce redness of the skin. Not to mention, coffee has been linked to reduced cancer and diabetes rates.

[bekahrohrig]

Ur hot

[TheRSTLNEIsBackbaby]

your so cute!! :)

[SagaciousSofia]

@TheRSTLNEIsBackbaby  Thank you! ^_^

[SagaciousSofia]

P.S. Yes, you can buy this wig online. I found it on ebay by searching "Blue Cosplay wig."

[SagaciousSofia]

I realize that coffee dries out your skin, that is why the olive oil is included in this. Yes, coffee dehydrates you, although that is generally only when it is ingested, as it is not well absorbed through the skin. However, I never said that this scrub was going to do anything for your hydration.

[AnitaHaven]

like everyone else here... I love your hair!

[MemeTheBest5]

I luv ur hair!!!! Can u do a tutorial on how u style it?? Plz thx!!

[frozenkumiyumi28]

Ahh your sooo pretty! I luff the hair! It totally reminds me of a blue version of Radical Ed hair.

:D

[lovebeautylove]

great video & I love the wig ^^

[MultiR33d]

coffee dehydrates you and dries out your skin causing it to crack....just a heads up

[SagaciousSofia]

Thank you! :) It's a cosplay wig, but I like the blue so much that I am planning on dying my real hair dark blue in the near future.

[mwiggins221]

i love your blue hair

[IridianDarkThorn]

I luv that wig! Did you make it or would i be able to purchase one somewhere?

[SagaciousSofia]

@IridianDarkThorn I found it on ebay, it's from a Japanese company. Just search "short blue cosplay wig" and you can find all sorts of wigs like this.
