5 reasons why Coffee is so good for your skin 



Coffee is well known for its benefits as a pick me up when consumed orally. Many of us couldn’t go without a cup of Java on a daily basis. What’s not as well-known are the numerous other health benefits that Coffee can offer. Coffee body scrubs improve the look and feel of your skin, leaving you looking and feeling smoother and healthier. So, when it comes to body care, giving your body a coffee breakfast of nutrients will leave you ready to face the world. 

1. Exfoliation 
If you want to achieve skin with a healthy glow, then using a coffee-based body scrub is perfect. Dead skin cells can leave skin looking dull and discoloured so removing them is a simple way to rejuvenate your skin for a younger and more healthy appearance. 

Coffee scrubs act as a natural exfoliator which not only removes old and dead skin but also reveals new healthy skin underneath. Unlike chemical exfoliators which remove the actual skin cells, coffee-based body scrubs are better for both your skin and the environment.  


2. Improved circulation 
Using a coffee-based body scrub 2- 3 times per week improves the way blood flows around your body. Improved circulation leaves skin with a healthy, natural glow. Just the act of gently scrubbing increases the blood flow to the area, but with coffee comes the added benefit of added super nutrients to your body care routine.


3. Added Nutrients
Coffee is full of antioxidants which help to reduce everyday damage to the body’s cells. Antioxidants help to flush out unwanted toxins like free radicals and increase the delivery of oxygen to your skin. These nutrients have been shown to slow down the signs of ageing caused by UV rays from the sunlight. You can keep those unsightly sunspots at bay by regularly using a coffee body scrub. 


4. Reduce cellulite and inflammation 
If you suffer from skin inflammation it can be uncomfortable and affect your confidence. Coffee scrubs can keep inflammation at bay thanks to those wonderful antioxidant properties. When it comes to cellulite coffee is a diuretic and when taken orally can cause dehydration. However, when it’s applied to the skin this dehydrating effect reduces the size of fat cells and tightens the skin. With tighter, firmer skin your cellulite will appear reduced as the skin will be less uneven. 




5. Reduce puffiness
Facial coffee scrub masks work miracles on puffy areas, especially around the eyes. Coffee scrubs are gentle enough to use on sensitive areas helping you to face the day ahead. They stimulate the blood cells creating a tighter and brighter looking area around the eyes. Again, thanks to the antioxidant’s, nourishment is carried directly to the areas that need some extra love. 

Coffee body and face scrubs leave you looking smoother, younger and healthier, but they also leave you feeling smooth with an added glow. So why not try our coffee-based body scrubs as part of your daily body care routine and give your skin the lift it deserves.
