5 Mask Recipes to Rejuvenate Your Skin

 

Matcha (the powder form of green tea) may seem like a late-night iced drink, but when it comes to skincare, green tea powder is a superstar. For starters, it contains chlorophyll, which is both an antioxidant and a detoxifier. In other words, it allows free radicals that can damage cells to be removed from the skin.

1. Aloe Vera and Matcha Mask for Oily Skin

This recipe is perfect for oily, normal or combination skin types and has the added benefit of soothing the skin as it contains aloe vera.

What do you need:

1 teaspoon of Matcha

2 teaspoons of Aloe vera

How to Prepare: Combine Aloe vera and Matcha in a small bowl. You can add more or less aloe vera depending on what consistency you prefer, but we found a ratio of 1: 2 to be perfect. Apply to your face, let sit for 15 minutes, then rinse off with lukewarm water.

2.Shine Avocado and Matcha Mask

3.Antiaging Matcha, Banana and Turmeric Mask

Both matcha and turmeric have amazing anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties. Olive oil is another powerful antioxidant that increases the elasticity of your skin. Banana gives the skin a firmer and brighter glow due to its high mineral and vitamin content.

1/2 mashed banana

1/2 teaspoon of turmeric

1/2 teaspoon of Matcha

4.Moisturizing Matcha, Rose Water and Coconut Mask

Coconut is not only super moisturizing but also a natural anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Paired with the same miracle matching matcha and moisturizing rose water, this mask is a real recovery for tired, dry skin.

What do you need:

2 teaspoons of Matcha

1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil

Rose water to the preferred consistency

How to Prepare: Combine the melted coconut oil and matcha in a small bowl. Add a drop of rose water until you have a medium-thick paste that is easy to spread over your skin. Keep it on your skin for 20 minutes then wipe it with a warm wet towel. The dead skin on your skin is gone, and it will look shiny and moist.

5. Anti-Inflammatory, Exfoliating Matcha Peeling

What do you need:

1/3 cup of coconut oil
