The chase for glowing, radiant skin in our daily lives is sometimes complicated by trying various beauty skincare regimens and several beauty products. Coffee as an ingredient has slowly turned into a skincare buddy with advantages that are not limited to making you feel refreshed.


Ganesh Kamath, Founder, Earthraga has shared with IANS life the benefits of coffee for your skin:

Natural Exfoliator

Coffee grounds, because of their grainy nature make a great natural exfoliant. The granules aid in the removal of dead skin cells, unclog pores, and stimulate cell turnover. Regular exfoliation automatically leads to softer, brighter skin, and using coffee grounds can offer you one more gentle option which is friendly towards nature.

The dual effects of Coffee

Coffee is found to be an excellent ally in the fight against aging for youthful skin. It is loaded with antioxidants like chlorogenic acid that neutralize free radicals therefore making the aging process slower. In addition, coffee containing caffeine stimulates blood circulation leading to the delivery of necessary nutrients to cells on the skin promoting a revitalised complexion.

A great remedy for acne

Coffee’s natural anti-inflammatory effects can make it an ally in the fight against acne. The use of coffee-based skincare products or homemade masks can aid in calming the irritation on the skin and subsiding redness resulting from acne breakouts.

Reduces Puffiness

When coffee is used as a topical, the presence of caffeine helps eliminate puffiness. Working by a reduction in blood vessels, caffeine assists in reducing puffiness and dark circles therefore it plays an important role as part of your skincare regime for looking refreshed.

In conclusion it can be said that it becomes clear that this dynamic duo offers a quick morning fix and numerous advantages for the skin. Coffee has an antioxidant protection that may transform your skincare regimen from a basic ‘routine’ to the finest one with improved circulation and natural exfoliation.
