About

Coffea robusta/arabica seed powder — a caffeine-rich coffee powder used as an exfoliant and skin-invigorating agent.

Coffea robusta/arabica seed powder is a blend of powders from two coffee species. Both contain significant caffeine (Robusta typically has 2-4% vs Arabica's 1-2%) and chlorogenic acid antioxidants. Caffeine is listed in EU Annex III with concentration restrictions in cosmetic products. Coffee seed powder at typical use levels provides natural exfoliation and antioxidant benefits, but must be used within regulatory limits for caffeine content.

Skin benefits

  • Caffeine may reduce puffiness and stimulate circulation
  • Contains antioxidant chlorogenic acids
  • Provides natural mild exfoliation

Known concerns

  • EU Annex III restricted — caffeine concentration limits apply
  • May cause sensitivity in caffeine-sensitive individuals
