Consuming coconut water is extremely healthy for your gut. It is full of nutrients and helps clean your digestive system, making it all the more efficient. Furthermore, coconut water can also be used to make face masks that are really good for your skin.
Coffee and coconut water
Add a few teaspoons of finely grounded coffee to about half a bowl of coconut water. Mix these two ingredients well so as to form a slightly liquid paste. Use this mixture as a scrub and massage your face gently in a circular motion. Once done, rinse your face with ice-cold water. Coffee, being an excellent exfoliating agent, removes dead skin cells and gives your skin a wonderful matte finish. The coconut water penetrates deep inside your skin’s pores and nicely nourishes the skin tissues.
Gram flour and coconut water
Form a thick paste by adding some coconut water to a bowl of gram flour. Mix the ingredients well together till the air bubbles have been removed and the paste seems pretty even. Apply this paste onto your face and the neck region and leave it to dry for the next 10 minutes. Once the paste has dried, wash your face thoroughly with lukewarm water. This face mask is highly effective in lightening your skin tone and gives you skin an even finish. It also helps reduce any signs of ageing such as dark spots, fine lines or wrinkles.
Coconut meat face masks
The white edible carp inside of this dry drupe is called as coconut meat. It can often easily be scooped out with the help of a spoon, through an opening in the coconut. The coconut meat is the most nutritious part of a coconut and can be used in multiple ways for enhancing one’s beauty. Add half or one teaspoon of turmeric to a bowl of coconut meat or less, depending upon the quantity you have available with you. Mix the ingredients well and apply the paste onto your face as a face mask so as to help hydrate and nourish your skin. Leave the mask on for the next 10 minutes and then wash it off using lukewarm water. Your skin will feel fresh, supple and baby soft, with a brilliantly radiant glow to it as well.
