- DIY Strawberry Face Polish (directions below): “Around here, we love putting strawberries on our faces almost as much as we love eating them! They’re full of vitamin C—a crucial component in collagen production—and salicylic acid, which zaps dead skin cells.” – Hello Glow
WHAT YOU NEED:
- 2 tablespoons uncooked white rice
- 2 strawberries
- 2 tablespoons organic, full-fat, plain Greek yogurt
- Coffee grinder
- Small bowl
- Fork
- Spoon
DIRECTIONS:
- Crush the white rice in a coffee grinder until it’s a fine powder. These grains will gently exfoliate your skin.
- Mash the strawberries in a small bowl with a fork.
- Add to the bowl the Greek yogurt, which boasts lactic acids that aid in removing the top layer of dead skin cells. Stir the mixture with a spoon to combine. When it’s smooth, mix in the ground rice powder.
- To use, apply the polish with your fingers to a clean face. Move it in small circles around the face and neck, then let the mask sit for a few minutes to give the chemical exfoliation time to work. Rinse it off with warm water and revel in your newly smooth skin.
Recommended for: Normal to oily skin
