Chocolate and mint- a winning combination!
Coffee has so many benefits to help our skin to look and feel amazing: It has the ability to mend broken skin, soothe irritation, and revitalize cells. It contains free radicals which help to neutralize reactions caused by oxidation, which are the primary cause for conditions such as acne and eczema. It is known to be a gentle exfoliant which improves circulation, breaking up fatty deposits which we all know as dreaded cellulite.
In a 2008 study performed at the University of São Paulo, researchers found that an application of skin cream containing caffeine to cellulite reduced the size of cellulite fat cells by 17 percent. In addition, a 2007 study performed at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro found that caffeine cream applied to cellulite decreased the hip's diameter in almost 70 percent of participants!
