Thanks for the recipe Sophia! Oh, how I love simple recipes like this!
Cucumber is often used for face swelling and puffiness. It is excellent when it comes to calming the face, and skin in general, down. It is cooling and gentle. It is also a great cleanser, especially for oily and problem skin types.
Olive oil brings nothing but great moisture to the skin. It nourishes the skin and moisturizes it but it does not have a greasy residue. It is easily absorbed by the skin leaving it smooth and supple. It is easily rinsed off with lukewarm water.
Finally, yogurt. Used for inflammation-prone skin, it contains alpha-hydroxy acid which have the ability to remove the dead skin cells. The result is rejuvenated, youthful looking skin.
