Coffee Yogurt Face Mask
This Coffee Yogurt Face Mask is great for exfoliation.
As a refresher, exfoliating is important because it clears away dead skin cells that can pile up and make your skin look dull and dry. They can also clog pores leading to acne.
Some exfoliators work because their texture gently scrapes away the skin cells; others work because of compounds that chemically break them down.
This simply DIY contains both. Take that, expensive Sephora product.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons ground coffee

WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
Lactic acid in yogurt breaks down dead skin cells. Coffee is also a great exfoliant and has the additional benefit of caffeine, which has been shown to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration of the skin.
