Coffee Eye Mask For Dark Circles?! #shorts

It’s crazy bc i feel like every real skin care expert and dermatologist out there online is SO vocal against DIY skin care, and yet so many ppl still do it! You’d think that the people looking for skin care solutions would come across real professionals like you in their algorithm but clearly that’s not the case

Dr. Idriss, we should just listen to your advice because: A. It is excellent professional advice based on FACTS, and B. You manage to look better and better every year (and I have been following longer than most 😅). Love from Paris 🇫🇷♥️

I used night and day, for months and months, the ordinary's serum which is 5% caffeine which is huge and a lot more concentrated than coffee, + it also has a small amount of egcg which is green tea extract, and it did NOTHING to my dark, purple, pigmented dark circles that I've had since I was a kid. Caffeine has a slight toning effect for eye bags, that's IT. It will not brighten dark circles, you'll need brightening agents for that (concentrated vitamin c, arbutin, etc). Using actual coffee or tea is even less effective + it just stains the area.

Yup, Dr. Idriss is right. One time I had a thought of drinking hot coffee to soothe my period cramps.... I'm now a tea person.

If you're a brunette and want to double up on DIY, you can use the tea you steeped as a hair treatment

What if we dilute the instant coffee in water & use soaked pads? If we can avoid the tears, are there any benefits to it?

using an ice roller is much cheaper, easier and safe. it has the same effects and results

I think it’s ground coffee, not instant
