Innovative Skincare Products Using Chocolate

By: Vivienne Myatt

Skincare products can be expensive at the best of times, so why not make innovative skincare products from your own kitchen and for a fraction of the price. Things like honey, oatmeal, cream and even chocolate can be used, but keep it away from hungry little mouths or you won't have any left for your skin.

It is true you can use chocolate! It is becoming one of the most popular beauty regimes available today. As natural remedies for skin care go, it is one of the better ones, as it is good for softening the skin and like when you eat it releases serotonin, which makes you happy! Just like in the beauty salons, you too can massage chocolate into the skin, making you feel rejuvenated and relaxed, but be careful with the amount of chocolate you buy.

Most people will tell you that chocolate is bad for you; well they don't know what they are talking about. Okay if you eat to much of it you will get fat, but it has a more beneficial use for your skin. Now you can buy chocolate without the guilt. Cocoa is the ingredient you really want and the stronger the better, as cocoa contains a lot of antioxidants.

Now let's take a look at how you use the chocolate in recipes, to create natural remedies for skin care. What you need to do is mix 4 tablespoons of cocoa (not strictly chocolate I know, but when mixed with the other bits, it is good enough to eat), 3 tablespoons of honey (the runny variety), 2 tablespoons of thick cream (which can be sour cream) and a level tablespoon of oatmeal, now you are ready.

The smell of this concoction is just as divine, as what the innovative skincare mixture would taste like, but we are not going to do that! No, once the mixture is mixed into a smooth consistency you rub it into your face, massaging it into your face as you go. This will exfoliate the skin and get rid of any dead skin cells. You should really enjoy this mixture and it's health and relaxing benefits, as one of the better natural remedies for skin care.

For the next twenty minutes you can relax, with the recipe applied to your face, the scent of the recipe will even help you do this. Just make sure the kids and any pets aren't around or they'll be licking your face and you won't get the benefits. So the oatmeal exfoliates as you rub the mixture onto your face, the honey unclogs pores and gives a deep cleanse and the cocoa soothes, moisturizes and makes you feel good, because of the release of serotonin.

Once your twenty minutes is up, wash off the mixture with lukewarm water and enjoy how soft, supple and youthful your face feels and looks. You have just joined the ranks of people who can enjoy homemade innovative skincare, and look fantastic for it! Who would have thought chocolate was so versatile.

Keep them to yourself or share these wonderful innovative skincare recipes with your friends and family, just make sure you keep the best ones for yourself. There are plenty of good recipes around and all it takes to get them is a little bit of internet research on natural remedies for skin care.
