For a healthy, natural, and nurturing eye serum, give this DIY a try. Seriously! With daily use, you will see a difference (at least I did).
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup fresh coffee grounds
- avocado oil
- vitamin E oil
- small container with lid
Coffee:
- A great constrictor, useful for reducing puffiness and swelling under eyes.
Avocado oil:
- Aids in healing sun damage due its moisturizing and nourishing compounds.
- Easily absorbs into deep tissue, assisting in skin rejuvenation.
Vitamin E oil:
- Vitamin E plays a role in the anti-aging of skin. It helps skin look younger by fighting age spots and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- The antioxidant activity in Vitamin E is vital in protecting skin cells from ultra violet light, pollution, and other elements that produce cell damaging free radicals.
Directions:
Empty coffee grounds into a glass jar and completely saturate with avocado oil. Tip: pour oil in small amounts allowing oil to fully soak in. Let the coffee and oil sit, covered for 3-4 days.
Using cheese cloth, drain coffee and oil mixture into a bowl. Its okay if some of the coffee ground fall in. Gently wipe away any grounds from your face.
Add a 5 drops of the vitamin E oil, blend well.
Carefully pour serum into a clean container (I used empty essential oil bottles).
I layer with essential oils for a little extra beauty boost. I alternate a few drops of Manuka oil and Frankesece oil.
