If you were to soak in a tub of espresso

Don't they make caffeinated soap? My guess is that you would absorb some of the caffeine through the skin.

No idea about the milk, but they do have caffienated soap, so feel free to give it a try.

Well I don't want to do it...lol.
I just want to know. The thought just popped into my head.

Yes, thought not anywhere near as efficiently as ingesting the caffeine.

I think I read that the soap works, so I'd imagine that your coffee bath would. I think people bathe in coffee already, at least that's what the Dunkin Donuts coffee around here tastes like half the time.

Don't you give me a dirty look when I come in here for a Cafe Latte, this paper says I can have as many free Cafe Lattes as I want, if I have to bring Jackie Chiles down here you're gonna be in a lot of trouble--hey, do you want a Cafe Latte? I can get you one, no problem!

I had thought of caffeinated soap many years ago, but decided against pursuing the idea. Yes, caffeine can be absorbed by the body.

As I thought about the soap, I realized that there probably wouldn't be that big of a market for it, and any profits I did make would quickly be wiped out by the idiot who washed her 2 month old baby with it and decided to sue me. (Or, sued by someone smart looking to make a quick buck.) I figured it wasn't worth the bother.

True. But these days it's best to imagine anything and everything that could go wrong, and some things that seem impossible, and put warnings all over the package. Just leave enough room for the name of the product. Oh yeah, and to the purchase the product you must sign a waiver...lol.
