Ingredients:
- 2 Tablespoons of Baking Soda
- 1 Tablespoon of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
- 1 Teaspoon of Honey
- A few drops of Essential Oil (such as lavender or tea tree oil for added benefits)
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Measure out 2 tablespoons of baking soda and place them in a small mixing bowl.
- Add 1 tablespoon of extra virgin coconut oil to the bowl.
- Mix in 1 teaspoon of honey, which will add moisturizing properties to the mixture.
- Finally, add a few drops of your preferred essential oil for extra skin benefits and a pleasant scent.
2. Mix the Ingredients:
- Use a spoon to thoroughly mix the ingredients until they form a smooth paste. The consistency should be thick enough to spread easily but not too runny.
3. Application:
- Before applying the mixture, make sure your face is clean and free of makeup or oils. Gently wash your face with warm water and pat it dry.
- Using your fingertips, apply the paste evenly to your face, focusing on areas with spots, wrinkles, or dark circles.
- Gently massage the mixture into your skin in circular motions, which will help exfoliate and improve circulation.
4. Leave it On:
- Allow the mixture to sit on your face for about 10-15 minutes. This gives the baking soda time to exfoliate, the coconut oil to moisturize, and the honey to nourish your skin.
5. Rinse Off:
- After 10-15 minutes, rinse your face with lukewarm water. Use gentle circular motions to help remove the mixture, continuing the exfoliation process.
- Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
6. Moisturize:
- After rinsing, apply your regular moisturizer to lock in hydration. If your skin feels a bit sensitive after the treatment, a soothing moisturizer or aloe vera gel can be particularly beneficial.
7. Repeat:
- For best results, use this treatment 2-3 times a week. Consistent use can help reduce the appearance of spots, wrinkles, and dark circles, leaving your skin looking fresh and rejuvenated.
Enjoy your naturally glowing skin! 😍
