Good day everybody! We all have more or less good skin but still who does not want some additional glow and clear skin? How about a special DIY Cocoa Face Mask? Sounds too yummy, right? We all like chocolates and coffee, did you know these tasty ingredients can be used as luxurious treatment for your skin? So, let’s see the details.
Cocoa powder is as tasty as healthy for us. It has anti-oxidants which is very important for our skin as it clears out the toxins. It also has essential minerals like zinc, calcium etc. It has anti-aging properties that keep your wrinkles at bay. The fatty acid in cocoa powder makes our skin soft, nourished and smooth. Not for your skin only, the aroma of cocoa feeds our senses also. It is proven that the aroma of cocoa heals depression or sadness.
Coffee Powder is also a source of anti-oxidants; it also helps removing fine lines and wrinkles and makes skin smooth and tight. Milk Powder and Curd works as bleaching agents, it helps reduce spots and blemishes. Honey makes skin soft and well-nourished. Curd and honey both plays an important role as skin conditioners.
Things You Will Need:
- One tablespoon cocoa powder (unsweetened).
- One tablespoon coffee powder.
- One tablespoon milk powder.
- One tablespoon curd (unflavored).
- One teaspoon honey (optional for oily skin).
How to Use?:
In a clean bowl, take all the ingredients and mix well. Apply the paste on all over face and neck leaving the eye contour and lips. Let dry for 25 minutes and wash with plain water, for better result wash with lukewarm water.
Important Things to Remember:
- If you have oily skin, you can skip honey.
- Make sure to make a smooth paste while mixing coffee powder.
