Next time you’re pouring yourself a glass of red wine, consider making yourself this easy DIY red wine face mask! Seems like a wacky idea but red wine contains resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant with anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties for your skin. So if you’re feeling adventurous – and in need of a little indulgent R&R, why not give this recipe a try?!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tablespoon Pinot Noir (or whatever leftover red wine is taking up space on your counter)
• 1 green teabag
• 1 tablespoon plain yogurt with active cultures
• 2 tablespoons organic raw honey

DIRECTIONS:

1. Start by pouring yourself a glass of wine.
2. Then make a cup of green tea and microwave the honey for a few seconds in the microwave.
3. Mix the tea, honey, yogurt and wine until they’re well blended.
4. Spread the mask evenly over your clean face and neck.
5. Relax and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
6. Rinse off the mask with lukewarm water, pat your skin dry and apply a moisturizer.
