#4 Natural Recipes For Glowing Skin

#4 Coffee Cocoa Milk Mask 

Ingredients

• 1/2 Cup ground organic coffee beans
• 1/2 Cup organic, unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 Cup of unsweetened whole milk (you can also substitute it with unsweetened almond milk)
• 1 Tbsp of lemon juice (for dry skin, try olive or almond oil)
• 1 Tbsp of honey (for extra oily or acne prone skin, use additional lemon juice here instead of honey)

Instructions

• Mix the finely ground coffee beans with the cocoa powder in a bowl.
• Add in the milk and stir until it creates a paste. For a thicker paste, use less milk.
• Add in lemon juice and honey.
• Apply to skin and let dry (up to 20 minutes).
• Wash off and store any extras in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• For extra exfoliation, apply in circular motions for a quick scrub (1-2 minutes), and then allow it to dry.

The caffeine in the coffee is known to have good skin benefits such as reducing redness and combating inflammation. It contains caffeine that defends your skin from the harmful ultraviolet rays and helps in fighting skin damage. It also loads you skin with antioxidants. Coffee can be used to brighten up dull skin when applied as a face mask, and is ideal for any skin type.
