Beautiful Skin With Chocolate Masks

Chocolate masks will moisturize your skin, making it beautiful, soft, clean and glowing. The color of your face will also become better. And, yes, you can forget about those pigment spots.
Beautiful Skin With Chocolate MasksOne of the best things with chocolate masks is the fact that you can easily make them by yourself, at your home. And here are some good chocolate mask recipes for your face:
1. A moisturizing mask. You’ll need 1/4 cup cocoa powder, 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup chopped oats and 1/4 cup natural plain yoghurt (or sour cream). Mix all these ingredients, wait for several minutes so that the mask thickens a bit, and then you can apply it on your face. You must leave the mask for 10-15 minutes and then wash it.
The cocoa powder is rich with anti-oxidants; it tones your skin and keeps it young and beautiful. Honey is a natural moisturizer–it opens the pores of your skin, has an anti-bacterial effect and helps to keep your skin fresh and clean. The oats will remove the dead cells of your skin, and the yogurt will help in that.
2. For another chocolate mask you’ll need a bar of dark chocolate, 1/5 cup of milk and one teaspoon of salt. Mix the salt and the milk, then heat the dark chocolate and when it melts, add it into the mixed milk and salt. When the mask becomes cooler, apply it on your face. Wait till it hardens on your face and wash it with warm water.
3. Rejuvenating mask. You’ll need about 50g  of dark chocolate and a teaspoon of olive oil. Just melt the chocolate and mix it with the olive oil. Apply it on your face and wash with warm water after 10-15 minutes. This mask is good for any type of skin, but for a dry skin it’s the best choice.
Some people are allergic to chocolate or to other ingredients of these masks, so if you feel irritation or any kind of discomfort, wash off the mask immediately.
