BEAUTY WHISPERS: The Amazing CoffeeBerry

So my mom just called me brimming with some very important beauty news: She heard from her dermatologist (Dr. Ellen Frankel in Cranston, RI) that she's loving the effects of CoffeeBerry, the main ingredients in RevaleSkin CoffeeBerry Antioxidant Skin Care. CoffeeBerry is touted to be a fruit with one of the highest antioxidant levels recorded, and very effective at diminishing fine lines, and smoothing skin tone and texture. And it seems like the ingredient is, well, percolating: Further research uncovered that CoffeeBerry was recognized as a powerful antioxidant for the first time at the The American Academy of Dermatology's annual meeting in February 2006, and that it's thought to be 3x more powerful than green tea. According to Allure, 'The texture and tone of the skin treated with CoffeeBerry extract showed 46% improvement in fine lines and wrinkles, 64% in overall skin smoothness, and 79% in skin hydration.' On the web, the results look good. And you can eat it, too. Me, this is the first I'm hearing about it, but I'd love to hear what you think. Any CoffeeBerry addicts out there? -- Laura Kenney
