Grape Seed Oil Facial Mask

Grape Seed Oil Facial Mask Posted By: admin Posted In: Homemade Facials Date Posted: August 11th, 2012 Comments: 93290205

 Ingredients:

 1 ½ cups brown sugar

¼ cup grape seed oil

¼ cup almond oil

Prep:

Mix all of the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. You may also choose to add a few drops of your favorite essential oil or scented oil, as grape seed oil does not have a strong scent or odor. Apply the some of the mixture evenly to your face and store the remaining mixture in a common household jar. Allow the mask to rest on your skin for approximately 15 minutes before gently removing with a warm wash cloth. You can store this mixture for up to 6 months by refrigerating it. Remove the mixture from the refrigerator and allow it to warm back to room temperature before reusing.

Benefits:

Grape seed oil is a very popular ingredient in many facial masks. The oil from the grape seed absorbs into the skin instead of coating the skin with an oily residue. It is a powerful moisturizer that not only will rejuvenate and rehydrate your skin, but it will also reduce the appearance of those annoying lines around your eyes. The Anti-oxidants within the mask will help reduce skin damage and wrinkles within your skin while leaving it clean and refreshed.

This mask is ideal for people who are looking for a gentle way to cleanse their skin and reduce some of the environmental damage that they have been exposed to recently. Grape seed oil also contains Polyphenol, which is a natural anti-inflammatory. This makes grape seed oil great for acne and sensitive or irritated skin. Grape seed oil is also a great anti-frizz serum for dry and damaged hair, making this incredible product a key element in any home beauty remedy.
