Coffee is bad for your skin one of the reasons I stopped drinking it. There is a quick explanation here that I found on google:
i have read that coffee flushes fat from the liver which can increases serum free fatty acids which screws up insulin sensitivity temporarily until the body can clear the excess fat from the blood.
theoretically this will cause temporary insulin resistance but in the long run has the potential to cure fatty liver and prevent diabetes.... but the cost is an acne flare up initially.....
i know the laxative effect comes from the release of bile which stimulates peristalsis. this fits with the 'flush fat from liver' theory that ive read on some other forums.
there are other theories but this is what makes the most sense to me
i love coffee so much. the smell, the taste and the way it makes me feel.
I FEEL YOU! I AM LIKE A COFFEE ADDICTED!

I notice everytime I using them, not much but just a cup.
May be caffeine is the problem.My advice:
- Take herbal tea instead
- Drink water instead
- Experiment with decaffeinate coffee or tea and see what happen.
Yeah Coffee and especially green tea is not good for me! I'm not a tea person so it's good. And I am slowly cutting out coffee! 
No kidding...I am ADDICTED to coffee. I love it. In the past (back when I had the occasional zit--one or two with Aunt Flo) I would regularly "detox" from coffee...whenever my intake started to increase, I would back off of it and go without for a few weeks. I haven't done that in a long time...the last year or so it's gotten even worse, since I moved right next to the coffee room at work.
Recent investigation has enlightened me...it may be a contributor. I decided just this week that it's time to do a severe weaning to get off of the coffee. I will let you know how it goes!
Coffee *sigh*, there are many things I would lke to experience too, eating instant noodles, junk foods, drinking every single type of tea in thea afternoon...etc
Sadly, you should know the line between what want to do & what should do....
For the addicted, lower the dose slowly, like drink 200 ML, 300 ML everyday then 150 ML everyday, then 100 ML, then 50 ML. Replace coffee with fruit juice, other herbal teas...
