Hello everyone I have been using homemade face masks recently so I know they are made with natural ingredients one of them being Greek yoghurt , honey and coffee beans it suddenly occurred to me how I've been following the caffeine consumption guidelines and forgot how I'm using coffee on my face mask I read some of it gets absorbed into the skin should I worry about this?

Not sure about the caffeine but it sounds a bit messy!

Use decafe coffee grounds instead to lower the amount absorbed

Ok thank you 😊 I did freak out a bit yesterday as it just suddenly occurred to me good idea and lesson learnt 😬

Good grief, I was thinking face-covering, cloth thing going over mouth and nose. Thinking “how does that work?”

Too long living under Covid.,

No, I really shouldn’t worry about this, especially as the coffee beans are likely to be the main active ingredient anyway
