Everyone knows that coffee has many health benefits. But few people know that it also has beauty benefits. Here are some ways to use coffee for beauty.

Exfoliate

With its grainy texture, coffee grounds are the perfect exfoliant. Apply these coarse coffee grounds in gentle circular motions to your skin to slough off dead skin. The caffeic acid in coffee grounds also boosts collagen production.

Reduce eye puffiness

Poor sleep or overwork can cause eye strain or puffiness and dark circles. You can use coffee to get rid of this condition. Simply cool the coffee grounds and apply them to your eyes and eyelids. Then rinse with cool water.

Make your hair stand out

Need to get your hair looking fabulous before a party? A simple solution is to add about 2 teaspoons of grounds to your conditioner. Let it soak in your hair for 5 minutes and then rinse.

Reduces cellulite symptoms

You can diet and work out and still get cellulite. To help reduce the appearance of cellulite, massage ground coffee into your skin. This will increase circulation and tighten your skin, minimizing pores. The caffeine in coffee affects your blood vessels, reducing swelling and inflammation.

Foot soak

Not only can you use coffee grounds as a foot scrub, but coffee also acts as a moisturizing soap. It has antioxidant properties that help reduce fatigue. Add a little vanilla bean for fragrance and a little olive oil to soften the skin.

Helps brighten skin quickly

Store the coffee in the freezer and keep it in the refrigerator. When you need to use it, take the coffee and apply it to your face. It helps reduce swelling and helps with circulation, making your skin glow.
