Beer is a popular low-alcohol liquor, consumed from antiquity. In addition to the taste values, it can also be considered a natural cosmetic and medicine. The purpose of the work was to describe the use and impact on the skin of beer and brewing raw materials. Beer baths as a therapeutic form were also characterized. Based on the analysis of scientific and industry literature, the types of beer baths and their procedure as well as the potential impact on the organism were described, the knowledge of hops and its antioxidant, bacteriostatic, sedative and estrogenic properties was deepened. The topic of yeast has also been developed as a source of ingredients useful in cosmetology. General information on malt and its potentially anaphylactic activity were presented. Brewery raw materials can be an interesting local specialty of Polish SPAs, but this requires conducting directional analyzes of their cosmetic properties.
