DIY Nourishing Brown Sugar and Honey Facial Mask Directions:
● Before you begin make certian to loosen up your coconut oil if it needs it, as coconut oil can become really thick in between uses and will not blend well with the other ingredients if not not loose.
● All you need to do is just pop the coconut oile in the microwave for about 10-12 seconds and stir. (This is why most tutorials you see will tell you to begin by microwaving your coconut oil or other base for 10-20 seconds.)
● Place your coconut oil in a mixing bowl.
● Add honey; whisk together.
● Add brown sugar. Make certain to get all the lumps out and whisk all 3 ingredients well.
● At this point your facial mask may start to get a little sticky, as the honey and brown sugar tend to want to combine.
● Just keep mixing it well and once you feel like you’ve gotten all the lumps out of your facial, add your Frankincense Essential Oil, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil, Geranium Essential Oil and Vitamin C Serum. Whisk well.
● If you think your facial mask is too clumped up, just microwave it for 10 seconds and mix again before you pour your facial mask into your jar.
● The mask will thicken and set up nicely once it sits in the jar, so be concerned if your facial mask initially seems too runny. It won’t stay that way.
When you add the Nourishing Brown Sugar and Honey Facial Mask to the jar you will notice the layers tend to be a little separated, but in time, as it sets up, the layers will dissipate.
● Allow your Nourishing Brown Sugar and Honey Facial Mask to set up for a few hours before using.
● Now just add a cute label and ribbon and you’re all set!
To Use Your Nourishing Brown Sugar and Honey Facial Mask:
● Take off the lid and if your Nourishing Brown Sugar and Honey Facial Mask seems too thick to just dip your fingers into and put on your face, microwave for 5-6 seconds and stir well to loosen your facial mask up a bit before using.
● Moisten face and blot with cloth, then apply mask to face and neck.
● Keep your facial mask on for 15- 20 minutes before rinsing.
● Your face should feel very soft from the sugar and well-nourished from the oils and Vitamin C.
