News India Live, Digital Desk: Beauty Tips: The first coffee smell of the morning… Ah! It not only awakens you, but can also give a new life to your skin. Yes, you heard absolutely right! Coffee can become an important part of your skincare routine, not just for drinking. If you always want to get immaculate, shining and healthy skin, then using coffee can prove to be a game-changer for you.

After all, why is coffee so good for the skin?

Coffee has many properties that are no less than a boon for your skin:

1. 
   

   Treasure of antioxidants: Coffee is rich in antioxidants, which protect our skin from damage from free radicals. These help to reduce aging signs such as wrinkles and fine lines.

   
   


2. 
   

   Reduce black circles and inflammation: The caffeine present in coffee narrows the blood vessels, causing inflammation and dark circles under the eyes. It is very effective to get a fresh and young look.

   
   


3. 
   

   Natural Exfoliator: Clean particles of coffee act as an excellent natural exfoliator. They remove dead skin cells and make the skin shiny and smooth, so that the pores also remain clean.

   
   


4. 
   

   Helpful to tighten the skin: Caffeine improves blood flow and helps to tighten the skin. This makes the skin look more young and healthy.

   
   


5. 
   

   Acne and spots: The anti-inflammatory properties of coffee are helpful in reducing acne and skin redness. It calms the skin and helps to lighten the stains.

   
   

How to use coffee on your skin?

So what is waiting? Let’s know how to include coffee in your skincare routine and give your skin a new glow:

• 
  

  Face pack of coffee and honey: Make a paste by mixing one teaspoon of honey in one teaspoon of coffee powder. Apply it for 15-20 minutes on the face. This will give moisture to the skin and protect against bacteria.

  
  


• 
  

  Coffee and milk/yogurt pack: Add milk or curd to a spoonful of coffee powder as required. Massage it slowly by applying it on the face and then let it dry. This will help lighten stains and make the skin shiny.

  
  


• 
  

  Coffee and Aloe vera gel: Mix one teaspoon of coffee powder with two teaspoons of aloe vera gel. Apply it on the face and wash it after 10-15 minutes. It improves skin tone and reduces inflammation.

  
  

Remember, always do a patch test before using any new product. Do not limit your morning coffee now only to drink, but also shine your skin with it! Your skin will thank you.
