Makes an ace moisturising face mask

Every week, you must treat your skin to a natural moisturising face mask. Simply make one yourself with the help of coconut oil, rose water and glycerin.

And rose water leaves your skin fresh and hydrated. These ingredients when mixed together work like magic to moisturize your skin.
