Coffee restores skin freshness.
Coffee returns skin freshness, beauty and health. Coffee scrubs and masks.
What could be nicer than beautiful and well-groomed facial skin? But in itself it will not be like that, especially with age. This means that she needs regular care. For this purpose, scrubs and face masks made of coffee are suitable — effective means to cleanse the skin of dead skin cells, refresh it and give a light tan.

All this is well mixed and applied to the face, while easily massaging the skin. After 10 minutes, rinse off the mask with warm water.
