Homemade Coffee Face Mask

Hello Everyone!

Recently I've been using a homemade coffee mask and I loved it so much that I wanted to share it with you all! Believe it or not all you need is coffee grinds, plain yogurt, and honey. The coffee grinds act as a great exfoliator and minimizes inflammation and redness. This mask is also perfect for dry skin as both the yogurt and honey act as great natural moisturizers. 


First you're going to take the coffee grinds and add enough yogurt to create a paste-like consistency. Once you've got your paste, add in a dollop of honey and mix it in until you get the mask to a perfect creamy texture. You can play around with the quantities since all of the ingredients are wonderful for your skin, that you really can't overdo it with any of them. What you're looking for is the perfect consistency for application. What I do is try out the mask on my face, and if I find its too thick to apply I'll add more yogurt until it reaches a smooth consistency.

Once you've got the perfect texture, use a brush to apply it to your face and let it sit for 30 minutes. Enjoy your youthful and glowy skin!

Homemade Face Mask For Dry Skin

Hello Everyone!

My skin has been super dry lately and so I wanted to try a moisturizing face mask to see if it would help. I looked up some recipes for homemade face masks and found that oatmeal is really helpful for dry skin. The recipe I found was from this website: http://skincare.allwomenstalk.com/amazing-homemade-face-masks-for-dry-skin and they have a ton more to choose from!


It calls for:
- 1 tablespoon of oat bran or oatmeal (cooked) (I used oatmeal)
- 1 tablespoon of yogurt
- 1 table of honey
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil (I used coconut oil as a substitute)
- 1/8 of a teaspoon of bee pollen (optional- I did not include it)


I noticed the mask was quite liquidy so I added a few more tablespoons of oatmeal to thicken it up a bit. I kept the mask on my face for about 10 minutes and then rinsed it off. I found that it worked wonderfully and didn't leave my face dry and tight as other face masks have. Oatmeal masks are also used for acne and I noticed my current breakout reduced in redness. It also smelled delicious!

The leftover mask should stay good for about a week and I plan on using it at least once a day for the rest of the week. I'm so happy I actually found something that moisturizes my face! Let me know if any of you give this a try and let me know how it works!
