For those of you who have read any of my skincare posts, you know that my skin and I don't always get along (understatement!). In spite of its tendency to break out at the slightest anything, I have continued my dogged pursuit of diy skincare treatments in an effort to tame it without harsh chemicals. I've had some successes (honey, sea salt, yogurt masks), and some failures (cucumber toner, green tea [which, in spite of my excitement at the time, has since broken me out]). None of my reactions, good or bad, have been nearly so impressively epic as the effect adzuki beans had. Brace yourselves.
