Introduction:
Skincare trends come and go, but sometimes the most effective remedies are found in your kitchen cabinet. An increasingly popular DIY beauty hack blends two surprisingly simple ingredients—coffee and Vaseline—to help promote smoother, hydrated skin, even in your 70s. Rich in antioxidants and deeply moisturizing, this combination can gently exfoliate and nourish aging skin, offering a natural glow without the chemicals or high price tags. Let’s explore how you can make and apply this unique blend at home.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon of finely ground coffee (organic preferred)
1 tablespoon of Vaseline (petroleum jelly)
Optional: 1-2 drops of vitamin E oil or a few drops of rosehip oil for added nourishment
Instructions:
Prepare the mixture: In a clean bowl, combine the ground coffee and Vaseline. Stir thoroughly until it forms a smooth, even paste.
Optional enhancement: Add vitamin E or rosehip oil to increase antioxidant and hydration benefits. Mix again until fully blended.
Application:
Start with clean, damp skin.
Using clean fingers, apply a small amount to areas you want to treat—usually the face, neck, or hands.
Gently massage in small circular motions for 1–2 minutes to exfoliate.
Leave on for an additional 5–10 minutes if used as a mask.
Rinse off: Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth to remove the mixture. Pat your skin dry and follow up with your favorite moisturizer.
