Who said coffee is only here to drink and keep us awake? It is a great source to help you take care of your skin and make it look young and fresh for a long time.
In the article, we present 3 ‘do it yourself’ (DIY) coffee face masks that you can try:
1. Coffee and honey face mask
You will need one tablespoon of coffee powder and one tablespoon of honey. Mix both these ingredients well in a small bowl. Apply the paste all over your face and massage gently, avoiding the area around the eyes. Now keep the mask on for 20 minutes. Rinse with cold water.
Using a coffee and honey face mask is the perfect combination to moisturise your skin and reduce signs of ageing like wrinkles, dryness and dark spots.
2. Coffee and milk face mask
To prepare the mask, take one tablespoon of ground coffee with one-two tablespoon of milk. Mix both to form a paste and apply it to your face. After letting it sit on your face for 10-15 minutes, wash it off with lukewarm water.
If you wish for even-toned skin, then a coffee and milk face mask is the simplest and most effective solution. It can remove impurities from your face and can make your skin glow.
3. Coffee and lemon face mask
Combine one tablespoon of coffee powder with one tablespoon of lemon juice in a bowl. Mix it well to form a paste and apply it on your face and neck evenly and gently. Let it dry for 15 minutes and then rinse it off with cold water.
Lemon with coffee helps in removing tan and lightening up the skin. It also provides a mild bleaching effect which helps get rid of dead skin and encourages new skin cell growth. Coffee gives a fresh glow with its cleansing and purifying properties.
