My Favorite Recipes For Hair And Skin Using Coffee/ Mis Cinco Recetas Favoritas Para El Cuidado De Mi Piel Y Cabello Usando Cafe!

 I don't drink coffee and I try to stay away from any drinks that contain caffeine, it makes me super jittery and really sicK. I do however love the smell and I love even more to use it in my skin care, if like me you have really bad dark circles than you probably know that most of the eye creams contain coffee and after you try some of my favorite DIY treatments you will see why! 

The caffeine in coffee has benefits like treating redness and inflammation, to getting rid of the horrible cellulite. Coffee contains anti-inflamatory and antioxidant properties that can keep your skin bright and soft. Also the caffeine can shrink the blood vessel under your eyes reducing circles and puffy eyes. Try some or all of these beauty DIY and let me know how you liked them....

Get Rid Of Your Under Eye Circles

I have super sensitive eyes that just react to every single element and on top of that with so much going on right now I'm not getting my recommended hours of sleep. Needless to say my eyes get really puffy and as but I have the best remedy for my puffy eyes right in my kitchen. So this is what I do...  I prepare my tea like I usually do but instead use two tea bags, then I place the bags in the fridge for 15 minutes. Meanwhile I drink my tea, then take the tea bags and place them on my eyes for 10 minutes. The caffeine and cold constrict blood vessels and drain fluid. Then I dab a pea-size drop of depuffing eye cream that contains caffeine on the area( I like Origins). Drink a lot of water and go on about my day. For me this doesnt get rid of them completly but it makes a huge deference, try it and let me know if it works for you!

No puedo subrayar lo mucho que odio mis ojeras. TENGO super ojos sensibles que reaccionan ante cada uno de los elementos y en la parte superior de que con todo lo que se cuece ahora mismo no estoy recibiendo mis horas recomendadas de sueño. No hace falta decir que mis ojos hinchados y como realmente pero tengo el mejor remedio para mis ojos hinchados en mi cocina. Así que esto es lo que hago... Me preparo mi té como hago siempre, pero en su lugar, utilice dos bolsitas de té, entonces me coloque las bolsas en la nevera durante 15 minutos. Mientras tanto yo voy a beber mi té, a continuación, tomar el té y los coloque en mis ojos durante 10 minutos. La cafeína y el frío constriñe los vasos sanguíneos y drenan el líquido. Entonces me unto  una crema de contorno de ojos que contiene cafeína en el area( me gusta origins).  Beba mucha agua en el día. Para mí esto no deshacerse de ellos completamente pero hace una gran diferencia, pruébelo y que me haga saber si funciona para usted!

Hay miles de productos en el mercado que prometen borrarlas para siempre, oh simplemente puedes ir a tu cocina y preparar algo que te va ayudar mas. Todo depende de lo que funciona para ti, pero yo te puedo asegurar que no solo ayuda con tus ojeras si no tambien a que se te vea menos inflamada.

Bright Face, and Dark Circles Free!

 I'm sure you all have heard that NY never sleeps, right? I spent the weekend visiting my family in NY and boy I look like I haven't slept in weeks! Dark circles along with large pores and acne scars, is one of the most annoying things we come across as women (and even men)! A super easy and effective way to remove dark circles and even lighten skin all over your face and body is using potatoes! Potatoes have catecholase which are in all of those really expensive face brighteners you buy from department stores. All you need to do is use the purree of one raw potato and apply it all over your eyes. If you are applying to your eye area make sure you don’t get any in your eyes! Leave on your face for 15 minutes before washing your face as usual! You can repeat this 3 times a week if needed! If you find you need a little moisture, try adding just a few drops of honey or Vitamin E oil. Good Luck Xxx
