is coffee bad for your skin?

Answer 1

There are pros and cons in using coffee for skin care.

Pros
- coffee contains antioxidant that can help fight skin cancer.
- some preliminary studies show that topically applied coffee can yield beautiful skin.

Cons
- coffee is a mild diurectic. If drunk in large quantity, coffee can cause dehydration of the skin.
- drinking coffee can interfere with a good night s sleep, which is essential to good skin.

So drinking small amount of coffee shouldn t affect the health of skin. But at large quantity, you should talk to your doctor first to find out if the antioxidant benefit is worth it. There are other ways to prevent skin cancer. One of the best ways is to use a broad spectrum sunscreen everyday even when the weather is cloudy.

Answer 2

Did you know that coffee applied topically works as a mild sunscreen? I used to make soap with ground coffee beans in it. It works as a great loofah, smells great to wake you up, and has that natural skin benefit.

Answer 3

No dear, not at all...If you are living in a cold area then, neither it is bad for your inner body nor for your outer layers of skin.In-fact, coffee contains antioxidant that are helpful to fight against skin cancer so, don't listen to the foolish dumb people who think, spreading wrong information is their superior duty. Disgusting !
