While whole world knows coffee energizes, it’s a recent find that it’s beneficial in skincare and haircare. Caffeic acid which is an antioxidant present in coffee helps boost collagen and reduce signs of ageing.

The antimicrobial properties also helps against germ protect.

Caffeine is great to reduce puffiness in eyes. Stimulating the blood flow caffeine helps to tighten skin naturally and also reduces fluid retention under the eyes.
