Love the boost you get from downing a fresh cup of coffee in the morning? Then you’ll love the pick-me-up of caffeine in your skin care. Caffeine is a natural stimulant that reduces fatigue, stimulates the brain, and lifts your mood when ingested. In skin care, it has a range of benefits, from de-puffing the eye area to combatting free radical damage. Read on to learn more about super-charging your skin care with caffeine.
Caffeine is a natural stimulant most commonly found in tea, coffee, and cacao plants. While it works to wake us up in the morning, it doesn’t exactly “wake up” the skin, as many people believe—but it has other benefits. Applied topically as part of your skin care routine, caffeine has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, improves circulation, and reduces the impact free radicals have on your skin. Caffeine is also a vasoconstrictor, meaning it can constrict the blood vessels, which can have both a brightening and de-puffing effect, especially under the eyes.
Here are the benefits caffeine can have for your skin:
It reduces puffiness: Puffy eyes can be caused by dilated blood vessels, which are more visible due to the thin, sensitive skin under the eyes. As a vasoconstrictor, caffeine constricts these blood vessels, which will reduce puffiness and help lighten the appearance of dark circles.
It’s an antioxidant: Antioxidants defend against the damage caused by free radicals, the reactive oxygen caused by UV radiation. Therefore, caffeine can slow down the signs of photoaging and other signs of free radical damage, such as loss of elasticity, wrinkles, dullness, and hyperpigmentation.
It can reduce the appearance of cellulite: Applied topically, caffeine can constrict blood vessels underneath the skin, which has a temporary tightening and smoothing effect. This can be useful in treating areas of the body with cellulite or bumpy skin.
It brightens skin: Because it improves circulation, caffeine can help brighten the skin for a healthy glow, reducing dullness and the look of fatigue—especially helpful if you didn’t get enough sleep the night before.
Caffeine can be found in many skin care products on the shelves these days—you only have to look at the ingredients list to see if it’s there. Here are three of the most effective ways to get the most out of caffeine in your skin care routine:
For the eyes: Caffeine is especially effective at fighting puffiness and dark circles around the eyes with its vasoconstriction properties and is commonly found in eye creams and serums. Use a small amount around the eyes, nose, chin, and other areas to reduce general redness, as well.
For the face: To make the most of caffeine’s brightening and tightening effect, use a moisturizer or serum that can be applied to the whole face, or try a mask, which will have a higher concentration.
For the body: Caffeine in body creams and scrubs can help smooth out cellulite thanks to caffeine’s vasoconstriction capabilities and also because it helps stimulate circulation. In a pinch, you can even make a DIY scrub to use at home by mixing coffee grounds and coconut oil, then scrubbing it gently into your skin in the shower.
The antioxidants in caffeine support the production of collagen and elastin, two essential building blocks for having firm, youthful skin. Venus Legacy™ and Venus Versa™ use radio frequency energy to effectively boost collagen and elastin production as both a restorative and preventative measure against the signs of aging. Non-surgical wrinkle reduction treatments and skin tightening treatments address fine lines and deep wrinkles, at the same time improving skin laxity, sagging, and loss of elasticity. Both of these comfortable, no-downtime treatments visibly restore tighter, smoother, and younger-looking skin.
Caffeine can refresh the look of your skin, but the effects will be subtle and temporary. Skin resurfacing is one of the most sought-after treatments for improving the overall look and feel of the skin and resolving issues such as scars, wrinkles, enlarged pores, or stretch marks. Skin resurfacing treatments with Venus Viva™ MD stimulate scar healing by delivering radio frequency energy via tiny pins that allow the RF energy to reach below the skin’s surface layers. The treatments accelerate the skin’s natural healing process and promote collagen and elastin production to correct scar tissue, improve textural irregularities of the skin, and restore a brighter, smoother complexion.
Caffeine is especially effective at temporarily smoothing cellulite and tightening skin. For a more lasting effect, cellulite reduction treatments with Venus Legacy™ are non-surgical and offered in comfortable 15-30 minute sessions with no downtime. Most people see visible improvements after just one treatment session. The treatments use Multi-Polar Radio Frequency and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) in a process that reduces fatty tissue while increasing the production of collagen and elastin fibers under the skin. This dual effort combines to create a slimmer, sculpted look, smoother skin, and a reduction in cellulite.
