Instructions: 1. Combine all ingredients together in a small bowl. 2. Wash your face with a cleanser, dry, and then apply the mask liberally to the face and neck. 3. Let sit on your face for 20 minutes. 4. Wash the mask off your face and follow-up with your typical skincare routine.
Ingredients: • 1/4 c. ground organic coffee • 1/3 c. sweet almond oil • 2 Tbsp. castor oil • Dropper bottle • Cheesecloth or nut milk bag
Instructions: 1. Combine the sweet almond oil and the coffee in a glass jar. 2. Cover with a lid and let sit on the counter for a week to infuse. 3. Using your cheesecloth or nut milk bag (that’s what I used), strain the infused oil into a bowl, you might have some small coffee residue that gets through and that’s just fine. 4. Add the castor oil to the bowl and stir to combine. 5. Using a small funnel, pour the oil into your dropper bottle.
