Face Mask
“This mask contains vitamins that treat wrinkles, dehydration, and even skin tone and texture,” explained Pekar. “Apricots contain vitamins A, B, and C, which heal damaged skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles,” she noted. “Bananas’ vitamins C and B6 help with skin elasticity and deliver a healthy glow.”What You Need:
- ½ of a banana
- 1 apricot
- 1 teaspoon of 100 percent raw honey
Directions:
Remove the skin and pit of the apricot and the peel of the banana, and cut both fruits into small pieces. Mix them with the raw honey in a blender until you achieve a creamy, fluffy texture. Apply the blend to your entire face (except for your eyes, lips, and nostrils), leave on for 20 minutes, and rinse off with cool water.
Body Treatment
“A coffee bean exfoliator is one of the best tricks for cellulite and dry skin!” said Pekar. The caffeine in this formula will tighten your skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite, while honey and coconut oil add deep moisture.
What You Need:
- 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
- 1/4 cup of organic coffee grinds
- 2 tablespoons of 100 percent raw honey
Directions:
Combine all ingredients into a thick paste. After a shower, massage the scrub in an upwards direction on your body, concentrating on areas you’d like to look toned. Rinse off after 20 minutes with cool water.
