Anything but cold coffee – beauty care with coffee powder
Coffee doesn't ask where you were last night. Coffee understands you. And much better than you think. Because coffee not only has full power as a drink, but is also a real kick as a beauty product. With this all-round talent, you can create highly effective cosmetic products yourself in no time.
For example, a scrub made from cold coffee grounds and a few drops of olive oil or honey. This makes the complexion super soft and stimulates blood circulation. As a body peeling, it also helps against cellulite. If the night was too short, you can easily combat puffy eyes with coffee. Simply soak two cotton pads with black coffee, place them on your eyes and thanks to the invigorating effect, you'll look wide awake in no time.
Since caffeine, as already mentioned, stimulates blood circulation, it also has a positive effect on hair growth. It's not for nothing that there are now plenty of caffeine shampoos on the market. But here too you can lend a hand and easily create a hair treatment. Simply massage cold coffee including coffee grounds into your scalp and hair, let it work for a while and rinse it out with plenty of clean water. This is a real booster for the hair and gives you a wonderful shine. Unfortunately, this trick only works on dark hair.
Last but not least, coffee also makes you beautiful from the inside. The reason for this is that coffee contains lots of antioxidants that keep free radicals in the body in check and thus prevent premature skin aging, for example. Coffee also suppresses the feeling of hunger and stimulates fat burning. But please don't start drinking liters of coffee every day, because it's only healthy in moderation. Up to 400 mg of caffeine per day is okay, which is equivalent to four to five cups. And that's how you get through the day, right?
