Beauty Trick Of The Day: Chocolate Face Mask

  

 I have been doing a beauty trick of the day for a couple weeks now on my facebook page and it has gotten some pretty good feedback. I'm really big on home made remedies. I would rather take herbs and different fruits and veggies that are known to have an all natural healing effect on the body than drugs that ultimately do more long term damage just for a quick fix.
     I think " why spend any where from $19-$100 on face masks, hair treatments or even acne treatments when there are items in your fridge and pantry that works just as well if not better". So I have decided to start doing Beauty Trick Of The Day on my blog so those who haven't seen my facebook can see them on here as well.

   This chocolate face mask is really fun and easy to make, it smells yummy and works wonders! This allows us girls to treat ourselfs with chocolate just minus the calories. :]
This face mask helps to increase hydration in your skin, tighten pores, and protect your skin against pollution and sun damage.

HERE IS WHAT YOU'LL NEED.


-Cocoa Powder: This is a great exfoliator as well as incredibly moisturizing, Cocoa powder is high in antioxidants which fight off free radicals, it also protects your skin from sun damage.



-Honey:  honey has been used for thousands of years for beautiful skin. It is very nourishing and hydrating, it rejuvenates skin and repairs skin cells, It is also very high in antioxidants, Honey also tightens skin, helps fight against acne and inflammation.


-Plain Yogurt: Yogurt has ENDLESS benefits to our body inside and out. It jam packs our skin full of hydrations, it brightens complexion, treats blemishes, fades scars, reduces redness, tightens pores and is anti aging.

Take a tablespoon of cocoa powder and pour in a mixing bowl, next take a tablespoon of honey and mix with cocoa powder, then take a tablespoon of the plain yogurt and mix. Let it chill in the fridge for 10-15 minutes then apply a generious amount on your face avoiding your eyes. Let it sit on your face for 25 minutes and rinse with warm water.

AND YOUR DONE! :]
