DIY Facial Mask Review ~ Coffee

So yesterday concluded my DIY facial mask for November. Can you believe that Thanksgiving is this week and Christmas is a month away!! Well this time I tried a mask that had coffee in it. I didn't follow the exact recipe because I didn't need all that extra. I just eyeballed enough for just one time but here are the ingredients:
4 Tbsp Coffee Beans, grounded
4 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
8 Tbsp Dairy Product
2Tbsp of Honey
Mix the first two, add the dairy and stir until it makes a paste and then stir in the honey. Apply to a clean face, let dry and use a wet washcloth to loosen and rinse.

For the dairy product, I used yogurt and I used instant coffee that comes in a can. It was pretty easy to make but it took a little time stirring to make the paste. I believe it took about 10 minutes for it to harden on my face and boy did it get tight!! It did take a little to loosen but it left a really nice glow on,my face. I did break out just a tiny but but I liked the mask.
The caffeine in the coffee helps reduce swelling and puffiness, the antioxidants in the cocoa powder help reduce ageing and the tougher helped replenish moisture. I noticed that all of the mask I tried had honey in the recipe.
So out of the four mask I tried, I would most likely use them all again but I really liked the Oatmeal mask the best because of the results.
Hope you guys enjoyed these DIY facial mask, let me know of you have tried any of them out and your results!

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over

Naturalle Drea Is.....

I have been back and forth about this for a while. The end goal of this blog and my brand that I'm trying to build is success. I have been just trying to figure out my next moves and what steps to take next. This particular move scared me a bit but I feel like I need to take that step out of faith and fully jump into this. You know the saying, if your dreams don't scare you, they are not big enough.  Starting August 2nd, Naturalle Drea is will be moving to Word Press and officially naturalledrea.com!

I started this platform as outlet for myself to talk about the things I love and I have grown and learned so much from when I started over 4 years ago. I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I first started but I fell in love with writing and creating content. I never thought I would start a Youtube channel either and I love creating videos (except for editing late at nig
