Tasty...Skin Care?

Thanks to Dee Dee Helbig of Ava Bella Day Spa for sharing some great at-home skin care ideas.  If you would like to contact the staff at Ava Bella, visit their website at http://www.avabelladayspa.com/.
 

Cinnamon and Honey Mask
1/4 t. cinnamon
1/4 cup of honey
little bit of dairy
Mix together and apply on face.  Remove after 10 minutes. Honey is a moisturizer & the cinnamon will help with detoxifying. The dairy will work as an exfoliant.
Drinking 1 T. of honey and 1/8t. of cinnamon twice a day has been know to help with weight loss. Also, 1/4 t. of cinnamon has the same amount of antioxidants as a cup of blueberries.


Hot Chocolate Body Wrap
2 packages of chocolate mix
whipped cream
1/2 cup warm milk
saran wrap

Mix the chocolate mix and milk together to form a paste. Add whipped cream to make it creamier. Paint on body ( in shower) and wrap yourself with the saran wrap. Leave on at least 1/2 hour. Remove.

Chocolate has an anti-oxidant effect which helps to detoxify the body. It also has caffeine in it which helps to stimulate the cells and helps with cellulite and to lose inches.
