Three powerful ingredients team up to create this mask – bentonite clay, coffee grounds, and cocoa powder. These simple ingredients are exactly what your face needs – and the best part is that the mask is perfect for all skin types.
And I really love the way this mask feels. It rejuvenates the skin and is just absolutely perfect for a day of skin pampering. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create it at home.
Why We Love This Mask
- Coffee is known to stimulate blood flow when applied to the skin.
- Coffee and cocoa powder are rich in antioxidants, which play a vital role in shielding your skin from free radical damage. This is particularly beneficial as antioxidants actively combat signs of aging.
- Caffeine has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce redness and inflammation on the skin.
- Cocoa powder may help treat acne or any blemishes.
Ingredients
Since metal interferes with the clay’s skin-detoxing powers, we have used only nonmetal equipment. You can use wood, plastic, or ceramic tools instead.
How to Make Mocha Mud Mask
- Combine the cocoa powder, bentonite clay, and coffee grounds in a nonmetal bowl.
- Stir together the ingredients with the non-metal spoon.
- Add 1/4 cup of water or just enough to make a paste.
And that’s it. Your mask it now ready to be used.

How to Use Mud Mask
Apply the resulting mask to your face and chest with clean hands. Allow it to sit for 20 minutes or until the clay has hardened on your face. Once the clay has hardened, rinse it off with warm water.
Follow this process once a week for the best results.
