4 Reasons Why You Need A Coffee Scrub

4 Reasons Why You Need A Coffee Scrub

Although it may feel counter-intuitive to cover your skin with a body scrub which contains coffee, the reality is that the coffee bean isn't just the source of a great tasting drink: it also contains a number of botanical compounds which can make a noticeable difference to skin health. Here we unpack why coffee is such a fantastic option for your skin and what benefits you may see once a coffee scrub is a regular part of your skincare routine.

1. Reduces inflammation

Inflammation is the body's natural response to trauma. This may be external (for example, the skin being exposed to wind, rain or over-heated interiors), or internal (such as a poor diet, excess alcohol or a medical condition). On the skin, the signs of inflammation include redness and swelling. This can cause skin to appear puffy and blotchy - not the look you want! The antioxidants and other beneficial compounds in coffee can act to reduce skin inflammation. This, in turn, frequently results in a firmer, more evenly toned skin.

2. Remove dead skin cells

Without regular exfoliation, it's all too easy for dead skin cells to build up. Dead skin cells don't just make skin appear duller than it actually is, they can also act as a breeding ground for bacteria. A coffee scrub gently removes those unneeded cells, resulting in cleaner, clearer skin that's often less prone to spots.

3. Improves blood flow

A good blood supply is essential to bring fresh nutrients to the skin cells and remove waste. Sluggish circulation can lead to reduced cell renewal and sub-optimal cell performance. Both of these issues can have a knock-on effect on the skin's appearance. Coffee stimulates blood flow, hopefully increasing cell regeneration and rejuvenation which results in healthier-looking skin.

4. Coffee may reduce cellulite

Although it's not entirely clear how coffee works to decrease the appearance of cellulite, some people who use a coffee scrub regularly do say that they notice a positive difference in those areas which are prone to cellulite.

Why not give an exfoliating coffee scrub a try and see the difference it can make to your skin?
