5 Surprising Ways You Can Use Coffee In Your Beauty Regime

Apart from being (almost) everyone’s favourite drink, coffee can also be used for a LOT of other things. Sure it’s the best way to wake you up every morning, but did you know that it’s also a brilliant beauty aide? If you don’t believe us, check out the article below on 5 ways in which you can incorporate coffee into your daily beauty regime.

1. It Enriches Hair Colour

Using hair dye or hair colour on a regular basis can be really harmful in the long run. You don’t want the chemicals to make your hair dry and rough, do you? Here’s where coffee helps. Take half a cup of strongly brewed java and apply it to your hair. Let it sit for a bit for lusciously darker locks!

2. It Gives You Healthier Skin

Believe it or not, but coffee is also great for your skin. Some of you girls may be using ice cubeß on the skin to open up your pores before applying your skincare products. Instead, use coffee ice cubes! It’s just like making regular ice, but you just add black coffee instead. Swipe the cubes all around your face. This helps to rejuvenate and brighten your skin by increasing blood circulation.

3. It Reduces Dark Circles

Tired of those shadows beneath your eyes? Don’t worry. Scoop a few spoonfuls of coffee grounds into a bowl and refrigerate overnight. Rub the mixture over your face in the morning, let it sit, then rinse it off. Reduced dark circles in no time!

4. It Fights Cellulite

The caffeine content helps boost blood flow and this greatly helps fight annoying cellulite. All you have to do is mix 2 teaspoons of coconut or olive oil along with 4 teaspoons of coffee grounds and heat it for about 30 minutes. After this, strain out the oil, store it in a jar and use it everyday as a scrub for problem areas.

5. It Helps In Lip Care

Looking for an easy way to take care of your lips? Nothing works better than a mixture of coffee grounds and honey. Take half a teaspoon of each mixed together, and apply it in a circular motion on your lips. Wipe it off with a soft cloth and get ready to flaunt your pretty pout!
