DIY Cocoa Coffee Face Mask

We've been talking DIY facials for a few weeks now. While those recipes featured simple pantry staples like apples, oats, and egg whites, this one goes a little more exotic for a fun - yet highly effective - twist.
This cocoa-coffee face mask will work to heal breakouts, thoroughly cleanse skin, and make you glow!

½ cup creme fraiche (substitute with sour cream, plain yogurt or buttermilk in a pinch)
5 Tbsp coffee beans (ground or instant coffee will work too)
4 Tbsp fresh cocoa butter (available at most health food stores)
½ tsp cool water
Grind coffee beans to a fine texture. Mix cocoa butter with coffee grinds until smooth.
In a separate bowl combine cool water and cream. Wisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir together until smooth and silky.
Prep your skin by washing it with a gentle face wash. Paint or apply with gentle fingers onto your facial skin and leave to set for 25-30 mins. Rinse with lukewarm water. That's it!
