Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon finely ground coffee (use fresh, unused coffee grounds for best results)
- 1 tablespoon yogurt (plain, unsweetened; Greek yogurt is best for its thickness)
- ½ teaspoon honey (natural humectant to retain moisture)
- ½ teaspoon extra virgin olive oil or sweet almond oil (optional, for added hydration)
Instructions:
- Mix Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the coffee grounds, yogurt, honey, and oil (if using) until well blended. You should get a smooth paste-like consistency.
- Apply to Face: Using clean hands or a facial brush, apply the mask evenly to your face, avoiding the delicate eye area.
- Leave On: Allow the mask to sit on your skin for 10-15 minutes. You may feel a mild tingling sensation, which is normal.
- Exfoliate and Rinse: Before rinsing, gently massage your face in circular motions for about a minute to exfoliate. Then rinse off with lukewarm water and pat dry.
- Moisturize: Follow up with your favorite moisturizer to lock in hydration.
Tips:
- Use Once a Week for best results, as over-exfoliation can irritate the skin.
- Spot Test first if you have sensitive skin, as coffee and honey can be slightly irritating for some.
