~ Aromatherapy
Coffee oil is often used in aromatherapy treatments. The scent of coffee acts to clear a person's mind of excessive thoughts. The scent also works as an anti-depressant an
d can combat feelings of nausea. Using a coffee body scrub will allow you to take advantage of its aromatherapy features.
~ Antioxidants
The main chemical in coffee is caffeine, a natural antioxidant.
Antioxidants have many benefits, including heart disease- and
cancer-fighting properties. Antioxidants also neutralize the effects of
free radicals, which can damage the inner layer of skin. This damage is
often reflected in age spots and wrinkles. When a coffee body scrub is
applied, the skin absorbs this antioxidant and can help prevent
premature aging.
~ Exfoliation
Because coffee scrubs are
made with coarse grounds and salt or sugar, they act as exfoliates for
the skin. Regular exfoliation of the skin removes residual dirt and dead
skin to give you younger looking, fresh skin. After the skin is
exfoliated, it is able to absorb moisture more effectively as well. All
beauty regimens should include exfoliation treatments, and the coffee
scrub provides it.
~ Blood Flow
Some people use coffee body
scrubs to combat the occurrence of varicose veins. The caffeine found
in coffee scrubs typically increases blood flow and may reduce the
appearance of cellulite. Even the action of applying the coffee scrub
can help with these types of skin issues because squeezing and massaging
the body helps to release toxins and fats held in the skin.
~ Skin Texture
Caffeine is a vasodilator, which means it constricts blood vessels in
the skin. This action works to make blood vessels tighter and firmer
very quickly, which is reflected in your skin texture.
