My secret to flawless glowing skin! I would say doing this simple 2 step daily routine is the MOST important thing I do for my skin and keeps my skin hydrated and nourished overnight!
It’s a very simple 2-step process.
Step 1 – Coconut cleansing.
There are soooo many benefits of coconut oil, its antibacterial, antiinflammatory, nutritious to name a few.
(If you want to know more about why coconut oil is so good for you here is a video that I think gives you the full list 🙂 )
- Use cold pressed virgin coconut oil and wipe it all over your face with a cotton swap or face cloth.
- This is safe to use around the eyes, but try to avoid rubbing oil into your open eyes. **if you are wearing make up repeat this step until there is no makeup left on your face – you might need a few cotton swabs though!**
- Try to massage the skin as you smear the coconut oil which promotes circulation. This will bring blood to the skin surface which nourishes it from within.
- Wipe off excess coconut oil, leaving a very thin layer on the skin.

Step 2 – Aloe vera moisture mask
Aloe vera is so moisturising, it bathes your skin in moisture, vitamins and soothes any irritation!
- Use natural aloe vera gel and massage into the skin like you would with a moisturiser.
- Wait 5 mins while the aloe vera gel dries.
That’s it! Your skin is now cleansed, nourished and moisturised.
The oil and Aloe Vera gel will create a soft glowing mask that clings to your face & keeps your skin hydrated and nourished while you sleep.
FYI- your skin will look shiny at this stage, don’t be put off! As the oil and Aloe Vera gel are absorbed the shininess will fade.
