chocolate, cinnamon, and honey facial mask

If you experience occasional break outs or rosacea, this formula is for you. While cinnamon targets surface bacteria, chocolate and honey moisturize and reduce redness from irritation.

1 tablespoon organic dark chocolate, melted
2 tablespoons raw honey
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth. Apply evenly to face and neck, being careful to avoid the sensitive area under the eyes (although honey alone is good here). Lie down and rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse with warm water.
