Is Caffeine Good For You

They say a little caffeine is OK: as long as you’re not overdoing it.  But, is Caffeine good for you?  Good news:  Caffeine can be good for skin.

Caffeine

Who doesn’t like a jolt of caffeine every day?  For some, it’s a good and sometimes necessary ‘pick me up’ when we wake up in the morning.  For others, they need another one around 2 PM for the afternoon slump.

They say a cup of coffee or tea is fine to have.  But, a cup is 8 ounces and most people (including me) like to have a very large cut of coffee in the morning.  They also say caffeine is good to have when you are studying for something…something about it helps you retain the information better.  I don’t know if that’s true or not, but I won’t argue it!

Anyway, what I really want to talk about is caffeine is good for you – your skin.

Is Caffeine good for you?

Yes, you may be surprised to find out that caffeine can actually help your skin.  Caffeine is an anti-oxidant and it can fight free radicals.  Plus, any redness that you have can be diminished.  Cool, right?  So next time you’re wondering if that skin care product that says it has caffeine in it is good, give it a try because you may just like it.

Alternately, you can also just make yourself a cup of green tea and use that as a toner.  You can also then use the tea bags to fight puffiness under your eyes.  See how to make your own toner and you won’t ever have to wonder:  is caffeine good for you?
