Beauty Tip: Home Made Chocolate Body Mask



















Cocoa has more benefits than simply tasting great. It is a strong antioxidant that is good for the skin. It is crammed with essential minerals like potassium, zinc and calcium.

You will not only smell divine, but look fabulous as well, as excess fat and cellulite will reduce with continued use.

Ingredients:

  • 10 drops of rose geranium essential oil
  • 50 g organic cocoa powder
  • 50-75 g strong green or white tea
  • 50 g Rhassoul mud
  • 50 g aloe vera gel
 Instructions:
  1. Add the cocoa powder and Rhassoul mud to a bowl.
    Add some aloe vera gel to the bowl and mix well.
  2. Add the aloe vera gel and cocoa powder mix to a blender and blend until it forms a smooth paste.
  3. Add some green tea to the mixture until you get a thinner mix than the smooth paste. (Make sure you don’t add excess liquid as the mask may become runny).
  4. Add some rose geranium essential oil.
  5. Now, using a paint brush or a cosmetic brush, paint the body mask onto your thighs and other cellulite stricken parts.
  6. Make sure you cover all parts of your body.
  7. If you are left with any of the mixture, use it as an anti-aging face mask.
  8. Once you have applied the mask, let it set and dry for 15-20 minutes.
  9. Once it dries out, take a shower and gently scrub the mixture on your body.
  10. Clean your skin and pat dry with a towel.
The Chocolate Body Mask does not have a long shelf life, and you should use it when it’s fresh. Now that you know how to make the chocolate body mask.
