Oh, man! I found out that caffeine has a mild effect that firms skin. Also, coffee does stain, but on skin it gives a nice coffee tan that does no harm.
Nice lens! 5*'s

Ah, if I could ONLY remove all those coffee stains from my teeth -- since I've been enjoying coffee since the age of 10 or so, my teeth do not always benefit from the whitening treatments. What a helpful resource! 5*****

I love drinking coffee, but sometimes I find it hard to keep the coffee in the mug. When I do spill my coffee it usually goes all over me, the rug and anything else that I may be sitting on. This lens is a compilation of my discoveries in removing coffee stains. I hope that you find it useful.

Thanks for checking out my profile :)
