I'm a coffee lover and as a beauty editor, I know the antioxidant benefits of coffee on the skin (one of my all-time favorite moisturizers is RevaleSkin's Coffeeberry Day Cream made from coffee beans), so when I tried this coffee and cocoa mask I was so excited: I had every single item in my apartment, no trip to the grocery store necessary.
I have dry skin so I used the heavy cream and honey combination, but this mask works great for all skin types. If you have oily skin, substitute the dairy for lemon juice. Those with super dehydrated skin can substitute the dairy for an oil such as almond oil, olive oil or coconut oil (actress Eva Longoria reportedly uses a homemade coffee mask every week made with coffee grounds, olive oil and lemon juice).
You'll find this mask will brighten dull skin and erase any signs of puffiness. Enjoy!
