So How Do you Make Milk Ice Cubes?
Take a big bowl and mix a cup of cow’s milk and a cup of whole coconut milk. Milk has lactic acid that removes dead skin cells and also provides a natural glow to the skin. Mix it well then pour it into a cute, pink ice cube tray and freeze it overnight. So basically it’s milk ice cubes.
How much milk ice cubes to use?
In the morning, wake up and enjoy a refreshing icy situation. I feel the healthy glow. You can also do this any time before bed. Cleanse, applying an ice cube on your face in a circular motion until it’s used up, rinse it off with water and your skin is tight and ready to go.
How To Prep The Skin Before Using Milk Ice Cubes?
Before putting Milk Ice Cubes to your face, carefully clean it with mild soap preferably a soap that does not contain alcohol and lukewarm water. Apply a cleanser of your choice but resist scrubbing your skin to avoid irritation. Then Rinse with lukewarm water and use a soft tower and pat dry.
How Long Should You Let The Milk Sit on Your Skin?
Gently massage for about two minutes in a circular motion. If you have sensitive skin and a little frightened to apply ice cubes directly to the skin and might get irritated. Try this instead, place four or five ice cubes in a piece of soft cotton fabric and secure it.
If milk cube isn’t for you, you can use these mixture into an ice: You can use aloe Vera (add 2 tablespoon of natural aloe vera gel and mix) or green tea (green tea ice cubes) – or just use a plain ice cube. Rub an ice cube on your skin. Ice cube rapidly constricts blood vessels so you’ll still get tons of pore shrinking and glowing skin benefits. It’s the key to product absorption and your makeup will look flawless if you give yourself a little ice cube facial before you apply foundation.
