DIY CAFFEINE EYE SERUM :
Say goodbye to dark circles and puffy, tired eyes with this super simple DIY caffeine eye serum made with a simple coffee-infused oil. Just a few drops in the morning will leave you feeling bright and refreshed.
EQUIPMENT
Serum bottle
Cheesecloth
INGREDIENTS
- ½ cup ground coffee
- ½ cup sweet almond oil
- avocado oil
INSTRUCTIONS
The first step is the longest, to infuse sweet almond oil with coffee. To do this, add ½ cup ground coffee to a mason jar and then add just enough sweet almond oil to cover the coffee grounds.
Close the jar tightly and let it sit in your cupboard for 4 or 5 days to infuse.
Using a cheesecloth, strain the infused oil into another jar or a clean bowl. Squeeeeeeze as much of the oil out as you can.
Add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil and stir until combined.
Bottle it up, baby! I added a couple of coffee beans because it’s cute and will continue to infuse my serum with caffeine.
NOTES:
If you do not want to infuse your own oil with coffee, you can substitute a coffee essential oil instead and use the following proportions:
- ½ ounce avocado oil
- ½ ounce sweet almond oil
- 8 drops coffee essential oil
- 4 drops vanilla essential oil
