Ingredient Focus: Coffee

Did you know that coffee is good for your skin, not just your energy levels? Yep! Coffee has many great benefits:

1. Coffee is rich in antioxidants and can help fight skin damage when applied topically (directly onto the skin). 
2. Can aid in cellulite reduction due to caffeine content. This is because it dilates blood vessels beneath the skin and improves overall blood flow. This also applies to dark under eye circles, therefore can be used to treat stubborn pigmentation.
3. It can help to decrease sun spots, redness and fine lines.
4. It is rich in Vitamin B3 (also known as Niacin). According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, Vitamin B3 can help fight skin cancers.
5. Coffee can be used to treat acne as it has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. If used correctly, it can help heal any wounds and skin infections, too.
6. If you are sun-burnt, coffee mixed with water can also be applied to the skin to soothe it.
