Face Masks

I use honey and cinnamon.

Coffee will darken skin, so people with light skin should not use it. Coffee has long been used in dark hair to give color and shine, and is warned that it will stain skin. Some people use it to give a tan.

Milk is great, it also cleanses and exfoliates. I use full fat goat milk. Milk will lighten skin if left on for a while, so this can benefit Whites who have a suntan they want rid of, but may not be good for Blacks as their face skin will end up lighter than their neck.

Do you think i can also add in some olive oil into the mix to make it into some kind of super face mask lol:D

Also how do you go about adding cinnomon do you use powdered or stick cinnomon and maybe boil milk in it?

You can probably add olive oil, I personally have never used it on my face as it can lead to breakouts in some people (although I do use olive oil soap so maybe it's fine for me, I just never risked it), but if your skin can handle it then go ahead :)

I use powdered cinnamon, mix it about equal parts with honey, leave it on for 15 minutes or so. As you rinse it off, start scrubbing, lightly and gently. Honey dissolves easily in water so there's no need to wash it off, it will completely rinse off and your skin will look amazing after.

Don't add a bunch of ingredients together, do the milk mask on alternate days, for best results :) I do the honey-cinnamon mask once or twice a week, and milk mask about 2 out of 3 evenings.
