COFFEE + HONEY - THE DRY SKIN HACK YOU NEED TO KNOW

A couple of days ago, we ran a poll on our Instagram asking how many of you suffered from dry skin this time of the year and a whopping 96% of you replied with a yes. We also asked you the DIY hacks that you used and the responses included everything from coffee scrubs to fresh milk cream. While consulting a dermatologist is a crucial step before you embark on any kind of skincare regime, a quick DIY mask using the ingredients in your pantry is easy to whip together and even easier to apply. Below, check out a DIY face mask that uses all natural ingredients and takes less than a couple of minutes to put together, but leaves your skin feeling smooth and plump after.

As always, we recommend that you do a patch test and consult with your dermatologist before.
