Did you know that coffee also has some benefits aside from smelling delicious and waking you up in the morning? Yup, in fact, it has some beauty benefits that you probably didn’t know about.

Top Beauty Benefits of Coffee
Soothe Puffy Eyes- Once you’ve made your cup of joe, set aside those grounds to cool before applying them to your underage area. Leave for 20 minutes before rinsing off the grounds with cold water.
Tint Your Hair- Use grounds to help dye your hair for a gorgeously enhanced color. Mix some grounds into conditioner, apply it all over your hair and leave in for a few minutes. Rinse it out for some seriously gorgeous brown locks.
Get Rid of Cellulite – This is a tried and true method to reducing the look of cellulite. Make your own coffee scrub in the shower and get to rubbing down all those problem areas where you have cellulite. Over time, it will help stimulate blood flow and tighten up your skin. You can also use coffee grounds as a great exfoliant. Seriously, this stuff works.
Add it to a Mask- Add coffee to a mask to brighten up your face. Mix some organic Greek yogurt and some grounds. Apply it to your freshly clean face for 15 minutes before washing it off. The grounds stimulate circulation for a fresh-faced look in the morning! Try it out at home and let me know how it works.
