Here are some Homemade Skin Care Recipes and Tips for Softer Skin

Sugar and Honey Scrub

Mix together 1 spoon of sugar (golden sugar is better but rougher, so if you have sensitive skin, it would be better to use white one), 1 teaspoon of honey, 1-2 spoons of sour cream and couple of drops of vanilla extract. Gently rub your skin, then wash it off.

Sugar will not only clean your skin, but it will also nurture it and stimulate circulation. Honey is an amazing ingredient when it comes to regenerating skin, while vanilla extract will smooth it further.

Best Coffee-Based Pilling

Coffee is an amazing natural scrub. Caffeine works as antioxidant, stimulates skin and boosts collagen production. Avocado oil, on the other hand, is rich in vitamin E, as well as minerals and omega 3 fatty acids, which makes it ideal for dry or sensitive skin and premature aging prevention.

All you have to do is mix 1 spoons of coffee grounds whit just a little bit of avocado oil. Gently massage your skin by rubbing it all over your face for a couple of minutes, then wash off. Coffee can leave stains on your skin, but any cleanser you use can easily remove them.

Fruity-Cocoa Mask

Smash well ¼ of avocado and ¼ of banana. Then add ½ spoon of cocoa powder and 1 spoon of thick yogurt. Mix it all well together until you get smooth paste. Apply on a clean face and keep it that way for about 20 minutes, then remove.

Avocado is famous for its hydrating effects, while banana is full of vitamins and minerals, and also protects skin from free radicals. Cocoa regenerates damaged cells and makes skin look fresh.

DIY face cream

Once you have it all melted together, take it off the heat and pour into clean bowl. Mix it well until you get your mixture thick and smooth. Then add 3 spoons of rose water, couple of drops of vitamin E oil and 1-2 drops of essential oil (vanilla, peppermint, citrus or whatever you like).
