If you haven’t heard me say it yet, I’ll say it again. I plan to emerge from quarantine looking 10 years younger. LOL A girl can dream, can’t she?!
With this newfound more relaxed lifestyle at home, I’ve been trying to put in the work when it comes to anything I do. You know, like not taking the quick easy way out. When I’m in the mood of course. Like making homemade ice cream cake for my Dad’s birthday this week.
So, I teamed up with Vita Coco to share my favorite DIY avocado coconut oil face mask for glowing skin. I love it so much that I also wanted to give it a permanent home on my site!
DIY Avocado Coconut Oil Face Mask for Glowing Skin
What you’ll need:
- A small bowl
- 1 tsp raw unrefined coconut oil
- 1 tsp honey
- 1/4 an avocado
Why is this the combo for glowing skin?
Avocados contain vitamin B, vitamin E, and amino acids so they both soothe and moisturize your face.
Coconut oil helps repair dry and damaged skin and is also naturally antibacterial.
Honey is known for its clarifying properties which helps unclog your pores without stripping the natural oils.
How to make your avocado coconut oil face mask:
- Add your coconut oil, honey, and avocado to a bowl
- Smash with a fork until the consistency is as smooth as possible.
- Apply to your face using a face mask applicator, your hands, or a spoon. Whatever is handy!
- Leave on for 15-20 mins.
- Wash your face with lukewarm water.
Ta-da! Babe, you’re glowing!
I like to do this face make when my skin is feeling dry and sensitive. Because you’re using only household whole food items, it’s also a great way to dip your toes in clean skincare. It’s also great to do with your kids. My friend Michelle (mamawestchester.com) did a spa day avocado mask with her daughter and it looked like so much fun!
