DIY Almond & Avocado Facial Scrubbing Mask

Did you know there are many fruits and vegetables that are fortifying for the skin, but are too tough to be blended by a standard mixer. Ingredients such as dates, beets and pesky flax seeds often end up chunky, however, the Dynablend—being the most powerful home blender with a solid glass pitcher and stainless steel scoop— is able to easily break down firm materials. This means that the Dynablend can not only mix the hardest of ingredients, but is also completely BPA-free (BPA stands for bisphenol A. BPA is an industrial chemical that has been used to make certain plastics and resins since the 1960s. )—making it the perfect blender for natural, at-home skincare remedies.

Over the weekend I tried out a DIY Almond & Avocado Facial Scrubbing Mask with the Dynablend Blender. Avocado is beneficial to your skin in addition to your overall health. Avocado heals dryness on the skin, reduces age spots, minimizes fine lines and wrinkles, and can even soothe skin affected by eczema.Almonds will make your skin feel smooth and soft and is a natural exfoliator.

Ingredients:
½ an avocado
¼ cup raw almonds
2 tablespoons of honey
2 tablespoons of sea salt
2 tablespoons of raw sugar
¼ cup of extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons of lime juice

Instructions:
Grind raw almonds in Tribest Dynablend until powdery. Add avocado pulp, honey and lime juice in blender while slowly mixing in olive oil with the stainless steel scoop. Once blended, scoop cream into a bowl and mix in salt and sugar using a wood spoon. 


Apply a generous amount of cream to clean, makeup-less face. Scrub the mask over face (being sure to avoid the eyes) in a circular motion to exfoliate. 

After a few minutes of exfoliating, apply the rest of the mask onto face and leave for about 15-20 minutes. Once the time is up, rinse with fresh water and pat dry!
