Green Beauty Recipes -Green Beauty Kiwi Facial Exfoliant

Here are a few of my favorite green beauty recipes for the Spring.

Green Beauty Kiwi Facial Exfoliant
Kiwis are packed full of Vitamin C which aids in collagen production. The kiwi seeds and the sugar powder make a gentle exfoliant while you cleanse the skin. Honey is a natural anti-bacterial and the oil is hydrating for the skin to balance it. Grapeseed Oil is great for the skin. It's full of anti-oxidants and it's a great carrier oil. Plus it has healing properties for the skin.

Ingredients
  • 1 Kiwi
  • 2 tablespoons of plain greek organic yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon of water
  • 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil
  • 1 tablespoon of Manuka Honey
  • 1 teaspoon of powdered sugar
Put the kiwi in a blender or food processor or blender until it's liquid while blending. Add yogurt, water, oil and powdered sugar. When it is a nice consistency, it's ready to use. Massage it into your skin including your neck and rinse well with water.  If you have some left over it should okay for about 2-3 days.  Enjoy!
