I'm going to let you in on a little secret of mine. I have been perfecting this little face recipe for several years now. My mother swears by it, my sister wont use anything else, and all of my friends are in on it. In fact, i seem to be spending alot of my time making this for them all now.
This is a 100% chemical free face lotion, As far as im concerned the only chemicals that help with facial anti-aging are the ones that come in a needle and go in your facial muscles.
So are you ready to discover a fresher faced you? lets get on with it.
Ingredients for one weeks worth:
- Coconut Oil x 3 tablespoons (Virgin palm oil works just as well)
- Natural Bee's Honey x 2 Tablespoons.
- 1/2 Cucumber Skinned (about 3 inches long)
- 8 leaves of Mint (Fresh seems best)
- 1 small Bananna (out of the skin)
- 2 tablespoons of spring water
- 4 coffee beans (or 1 teaspoon of freezdried coffee)
- 2 sprigs of coriander.
- Bottle of sparkling spring water.
This is best to be done in a blender of smoothie maker, by hand will not get it creamy enough.
Place the Coconut Oil, Honey, Spring water and mint into the blender/smoothie maker and blend until the mint is broken into tiny pieces. Next add the coffee and give it a whizz about. Add the cucumber and corriander, and finally the bannana. Keep it mixing until it turns in to a smoothe fluffy rich cream.
Empty the contents in to a tupperware box and place in the fridge to store and cool.
Next..... this is important to do before placing the serum to your face.
Take some mint, about 10 leaves and mix with a few tablespoons of water until broken down to tiny pieces. Take some sparkling mineral water from the fridge and add to the mint water. Take a cloth and cleanse your skin with this. It will remove all the oil from the surface of your skin and open your pores up.
Take to mixture you made from the fridge and apply to your face, apply like a face mask. Leave on for 15-20 minutes and then wash off with clean warm water.
Finally fill the sink basin with icy cold clean water and place your full face in it for 20 seconds.
Pat dry your face with a clean towel.
apply 2-3 drops of coconut oil to your palms and rub together, and lightly rub on to your face before bed.
You will notice a difference within 2 weeks, your skin will be bright and clear, blotchy patches and irritation will clear up, and fine lines will soften greatly.
And better still, if you use this in your hair like a hair masque, it will treat damaged split ends, and give incredible soft shiny hair.
NO CHEMICALS, NO SIDE EFFECTS, 100% NATURAL.
