DIY Coffee Mask

/ Saturday, January 26, 2013 /

Coffee has caffeine. The end.

So what?

Caffeine is something that is actually good for the skin. It has astringent and antioxidant properties, and also helps tone the skin.

What can you do with it?

Well, you can make a coffee mask.

The cost? Virtually zilch.

Basically, what you do is:
1. Make a pot/few cups/1 cup of coffee using a coffee maker.
2. Take the strained coffee bits and put them on your skin.
3. Leave them on for 20 min.
4. Rinse off.

After you do this, the coffee will make your skin feel a lot more refreshed and smooth.

The only downside, for me personally, was that it kind of made my skin break out because of the oils in the coffee. Bummer. Although it did make my skin feel smoother and softer!

Yeah. You can try this. This is good for people with normal skin types (non-acne prone), and also for peeps who want to exfoliate/desquamate their skin, as well as people with dry skin.

That is all.
