The ingredients are natural and can be easily found at home. The proposed coffee mask recipe is based on:
- coffee grounds
- honey
- olive oil, in the quantity of one tablespoon for each product.
They should be mixed in a bowl until you have a homogeneous mixture. It should not be too liquid, otherwise, it will be difficult to apply, as it will tend not to remain compact.
At this point, it should be applied on the face and neck, with circulatory movements. To give a lifting effect to this treatment, it would be better to carry out the half-sphere movements, that is to limit yourself to making the hands go from the bottom upwards.
The skin, if we bring it down with the movements, then tends to stay there, while pulling it upwards, we will get the opposite effect.
The coffee grounds, with these maneuvers on the face, will have a scrub, exfoliating effect from the first application.
The time in which the mask must remain on the face is about 10 or 15 minutes, at the end of which you can rinse with warm water if you want by removing the dough with a damp cloth.
The presence of honey among the ingredients may be difficult to remove with just water and hands, the cloth is more effective. Then pat the face to close the pores.
The skin will be smooth and soft, thanks to the moisturizing effect of the oil and the nourishing effect of honey.
