We know you love coffee, but did you know your hair and skin love it too? Coffee, in fact, does good to your hair and to your skin, and is more and more common to find it in beauty products. Read on and find out more!
How does coffee fit in your beauty routine?
In our previous articles we already highlighted the great property of coffee as a beverage. It’s time now to discover how it’s just as good for your cosmetic needs. We are not going to give you Granny’s remedies, but scientifically proven information that, we are sure, you’ll find very useful!
Caffeine and coffee, in fact, are already quite common ingredients of many beauty lotions and other products.
Let’s see the 3 main reasons why you should use coffee in your skin and hair treatment.
Skincare routine with coffee
Coffee makes your face skin glow thanks to its anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. This is due to the antioxidants in it, that go against the free radicals and help the skin to regenerate itself.
Coffee has also microcirculation-enhancing properties, which helps the appearance of your skin’s texture. This also helps with dark circles.
Next time you make coffee, don’t get rid of the grounds, use them as a facial scrub instead. You can apply it as you’d do with a regular scrub (but remember to be delicate on your facial skin) a couples of days a week: you’ll see the results!
Coffee is good for a whole-body treatment!
Coffee can be used as a scrub for your entire body, with just the same rejuvenating and circulation-enhancing benefits we just talked about. And, of course, by using it on your skin you will also get rid of the dead skin cells.
This helps against cellulite as well. The best moment to enjoy your anti-cellulite coffee scrub is in the shower, when your skin has softened and removing dead cells id easier. We are going to talk specific of coffee’s anti-cellulite properties in one of our next articles, so stay tuned!
Always remember to hydrate your skin with body lotion after each scrub session!
The reason why coffee is great on your hair
Always wanted that glossy look in your hair? You can have it by applying it under the shower, after your shampoo and before your after-shampoo. Massage it on your scalp to reactivate circulation: this will help your hair to grow with a healthy and shiny look!
We bet you did not know that you can also use coffee as a natural hair dye…stay tuned, we are going to tell you everything about it in one of our next articles!
