Ground Coffee and Honey
- Ground coffee contains caffeine, which can help reduce puffiness and dark circles by improving blood circulation. Honey is a natural humectant that hydrates and soothes the delicate skin under your eyes, providing moisture and nourishment to keep the area looking bright and rejuvenated.

Turmeric & Honey
Together, turmeric and honey create a powerful duo for healthy and radiant skin. Turmeric has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can help reduce acne, calm skin irritation, and brighten the complexion.Turmeric is great for acne scars, dark spots, & hyperpigmentation with its brightening qualities.
BUT be careful! Turmeric stains!! Wear gloves and add 1 tbsp of any plain yogurt to avoid staining your skin!

Rice Water Face Mask
Rice water is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help hydrate, reduce inflammation, and improve skin texture. The natural properties of rice water can also help absorb excess oil on the skin.

Oats & Honey
As previously mentioned, honey is a natural humectant that moisturizes the skin and provides antibacterial benefits to help prevent acne and keep the skin clear. Leaving honey on your skin is extremely soothing. Oats have soothing and anti-inflammatory properties that can help calm sensitive or irritated skin. Oats also contain antioxidants and beta-glucans that can nourish and protect the skin, promoting a healthy and rejuvenated complexion. The oats will work as an exfoliant as you rinse this mask off!
Blend ½ cup of oats, mix with 2-4 tbsp of honey
Side note: If you have a gluten allergy like me, make sure to use gluten free oats!
