Coffee Mask

The coffee mask is a quick and easy way to rejuvenate your skin and give it an amazing glow. It is absolutely necessary for some people to kick start their day in morning. Coffee is considered such an energizer due to its main content caffeine. Caffeine has a lot of beneficial properties for our health. It is said to protect against diabetes, certain cancers, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, heart disease, and may also reduce UV damage. It even helps to boost your workout performance, improves reaction time, logical reasoning, and blood circulation.

In the recent times the beauty products all include caffeine as an important ingredient. Caffeine has some miraculous qualities for the benefit of our skin. Some of the benefits are:

1) Caffeine stimulates blood flow – which can aid collagen production and help to target a range of skin conditions.

 2) Coffee has the same pH as your skin – so it won’t damage or dry it out.

 3) Coffee is high in antioxidants – which target the free-radicals that cause many skin imperfections.

Caffeine is used as an anti-aging ingredient in skincare. Antioxidants make it a potent free radical fighter, protecting skin against premature aging. Caffeine also draws excess fluids out of cells, creating a tightening and toning effect. Caffeine has natural anti-inflammatory properties which help to calm swelling and redness. It is good for acne and other inflammatory skin issues as well.  If you have dark spots, redness or wrinkles due to sun exposure, then you must include coffee in your skin care.

Now that you are well aware of the amazing benefits of Caffeine, let’s try this simple and easy DIY face mask.

Ingredients: Freshly grounded Coffee, Honey, Coconut oil, Bowl, Spoon

Method: Take 2 spoons of the freshly grounded coffee; add one generous spoon of honey, add one teaspoon of coconut oil and mix the three ingredients well into a thick paste. Your Coffee face mask is ready.

Now apply the mask onto your face and leave it for 15-20 minutes. Note: Please wear a messy or rough T-shirt while you’re waiting for the mask to do its magic as it tends to make some mess.

You can avail all these benefits if you also try this Mask at home. Go on and grab those ingredients and get started. If you do try this mask please do let me know and share your thoughts.
