A Delicious Dark Chocolate Treat

Every now and then majority of us will get a sweet tooth, and eating lots of sugary treats isn't great for us, so what should you turn too? The answer... dark chocolate!

This dark treat, is the kind of chocolate we can all indulge in, providing that it contains at least 70% cocoa. Being packed full of protein and B vitamins, it can help burn fat and also improve your skin and hair! This is definitely something we like to hear, here at the Face Matters offices.

Goodbye Sugar!

The festive season has flown by and after eating plates of turkey and piles of chocolates, it's time to detox! 

The best way to cleanse your body, and get your health back in check is to cut out the sugar. It's now a known fact, that us Brits are consuming too much sugar, actually the NHS reckon that we are having double the amount (or over), then what our bodies can handle! Which is why many of us are suffering from health problems. 

But did you know, sugar actually ages you! A large amount of refined sugars, can actually damage the collagen and elastin in the skin... causing lines to form and the skin to appear less plump, one thing no woman wants - ageing! If that's not motivation to cut out sugar, then I don't know what is! 

If you feel your skin needs extra attention why not try a face mask or treatment to help you relax and also clear your skin! Why not try our DIY Avocado Mask.
