2. Against aging
Apart from being able to make the face more relaxed, the benefits of coffee masks for other faces are preventing premature aging. Applying a coffee mask or coffee paste to the skin can reduce dark spots on the face, redness, and fine lines. If left untreated, all three can trigger premature aging.
Reporting from Verywell Health, the antiaging effect of coffee masks is also obtained from the antioxidant content of this natural substance. Antioxidants can protect the skin from free radicals that can trigger signs of aging.
Several studies have also shown that the oil contained in coffee masks has the same effect as hyaluronic acid antiaging treatment ingredients. The oil from coffee beans can increase collagen and elastin, making skin appear firmer.
3. Prevent skin cancer
Apart from antioxidants, coffee is also enriched with vitamin B3 (niacin). This compound is obtained from the breakdown of trigonelline compounds. Trigonelline compounds can break down into niacin after roasting coffee beans.
According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, the niacin in coffee masks can help prevent nonmelanoma skin cancer.
