Skincare Saturday: Brown Sugar

Hi all! Hope you're all enjoying your weekend!! :)

Alrighty, getting to the point, another Saturday at home means another Skincare Saturday it is. Not really a mask today but more of a scrub. Only three ingredients needed, very basic, very simple.

With it being Winter, I know I moisturize religiously. With all the moisturizing, I can't help but realize how much unnecessary buildup there are. This is why I like to exfoliate my skin every now an then. Don't do it too often because that will just strip your skin and instead of benefiting, you'll be doing the opposite. Do it just the right amount and exfoliation will remove dead skin cells for a healthier glow.

Let's get our scrub on!

BROWN SUGAR

What You'll Need:
- 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
- 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 Teaspoon Nutmeg

Facial Friday: Warm Cinnamon Mask

Hello Friday all and happy weekend!! I hope you are all ready to just kick back and relax. D-6 until Christmas. Who else is excited?! :P

Woke up suuuuuper earlier today because I had a dentist appointment early this morning; nothing too special, just my biannual teeth cleaning appointment. Teeth are cleaned and polished. Rawr! Haha. What a chilly day it is in AZ though, which made getting up this morning 10X worst. When I finally got home, I made myself a nice bowl of hot instant noodle but I was still cold ya know?

Well... I will be home for the rest of the night so I can just take off my makeup and kick start my weekend already. Maybe whip up a mask to pamper my skin too. Haha. And what better recipe for Fall than a Cinnamon, Nutmeg mask?  Gosh, I love me the smell of cinnamon. Love, love, loooove the Fall because it's all about the spices. I decided to give this already awesome recipe a tad more oomph by popping it into the microwave to warm it up. Because ya know.. a mug of hot cocoa and candles aren't enough to warm my soul. Haha.

Okay guys, go to your pantry and grab out these three products that nearly everyone should have. This is a super affordable mask with each ingredients no more than $2. Let's get our mask on!

Sunday Mask: Warm Cinnamon Mask

Hello all! Hope y'all enjoyed your weekend as much as I did. :P

I've been plumped up all weekend with no chance to run it off, the buffet last night sure didn't help. Haha. With all the high sodium food, fried and greasy food I consumed, I woke up with slightly swollen face. I need a mask that'll tame that swollenness ASAP!

Sunday Mask: DIY Spice Mask

Hello all! Happy Sunday!! And y'all know what that means... Pampering time with a fantastic DIY mask.

Today's mask involves 2 spices you'll usually find in pies and other other baked goods. Well today, it will go on our face. I'm pretty sure most of us, if not all, already owns this and it's just somewhere sittin' in the pantry. Now go grab 'em and get our mask on!

DIY Spice Mask

What You'll Need:
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon nut meg
- 2 tablespoon honey

What To Do:
- In a clean bowl, mix all 3 ingredients together
* It should come out to a thick consistency

How To Use It:
- Slather the mask onto clean face
- Leave it on for about half an hour to 40 minutes
- Use fingers to massage the mask in circular motion to exfoliate
- Wipe clean first with a towel
- Rinse off with warm water

As it is well known, honey is an ingredient that shows up in a lot of DIY mask recipes because it acts as an anti-inflammatory, which reduces swellings, bloating and irritated skins. Nutmeg also provides the same properties while cinnamon fades acne scars and such. This is not to mention the grittiness of nutmeg and cinnamon will act as an exfoliant.  

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading. Please come back soon! Tomorrow is yet another Manicure Monday. :)
