In general a lot of chocolate is consumed during the month of February. While I’m not big on eating chocolate, I do love it for my skin. Below are two recipes, both made with organic cocoa, a simply beautiful ingredient (high in antioxidants and aids in gentle exfoliation) that is widely used in upscale skin products across the globe. Carve out some time and indulge in a little luxury on a budget.
Fruit Facial
This facial masque can be whipped up in less than five minutes. It is loaded with beneficial nutrients and antioxidants for our skin. It smells scrumptious and feels cool and very pampering on the skin.
Ingredients (organic if possible):
Banana-about 4 thick slices
Strawberry-1 very ripe, washed and sliced
Cocoa Powder-1/2-1 teaspoon
Add banana and strawberry to a shallow dish.
Directions:
Use a fork to mash it up well. Add the cocoa powder. Mix everything together.
