Coffee:the extraordinary beauty bean!

Coffee is a multi-faceted beauty treatment. While drinking too much of it can act as a dehydrating irritant, applying it topically has tremendous benefits. Firming cream, cellulite reduction products, and exfoliaters all contain caffeine in some form. Caffeine stimulates circulation naturally, and when the blood is moving, your skin glows.
Some of its benefits include:
- Shields impurities
- UVA and UVB protector
- Soothes irritations
- Combats free radicals
- Reduces oil production resulting in acne
- Removes dead skin cells
- Astringent (this lovely bean neutralizes skin by carrying the same PH balance as our skin, 4.5)
- The strong aroma of this celebrated bean will remove pungent odors as well as grease by drawing impurities from the skin.
At home beauty treatments using coffee:
Reduce cellulite and exfoliate - Combine warm, brewed grounds with coconut milk and apply to desired area then wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Let sit for at least ten minutes before rinsing. This mixture makes an excellent exfoliant.
Glowing hair - Brew a very strong pot and allow to cool. Soak your hair with coffee, and squeeze excess and wrap in a bun for 15 minutes then rinse with warm water. Use a hand towel around your neck to avoid staining your clothes.
