singing koala sang mean philo say hey
book money how do you say er Dickman um
light happy Lunar New Year what a great
excuse to try a rice scrub and mask
ready to get your carbs on on your face
I mean get a bag of rice white Brown
whatevs I don't discriminate you're
going to need your bowl and half a cup
of rice I'm going to show you how to
make a basic rice scrub you can either
use the good old fashioned mortar and
pestle or the trusty old rolling pin or
my personal fave the blender what can I
say I'm all about efficiency let's start
rolling it might take a while but it'll
get the job done if you have a mortar
and pestle just start grinding away
grind up the rice until the grains are
smaller and smaller as if you're making
rice flour but don't make it too powdery
we still need small rounded grains that
will act like exfoliating beads
something like this and if you're like
me and you love instant gratification a
blender will do the job faster just fill
er up as I always say blend away rice
has a lot of nutrients that your skin
can really benefit from this is going to
be your scrub for a simple rice scrub
just use it alone activate it with water
and exfoliate your skin a lot of white
rice has been refined so if you want
more added benefits use organic brown
rice it's packed with more nutrients
like vitamin E now I'll show you how to
make a skin brightening scrub all you
need is a lemon
mother nature's skin brightener cut the
lemon in half and you just need one side
for today save the other half for the
next use so you guessed it just dip the
lemon half in the rye scrub and here you
have it you can scrub it on your body to
brighten your skin and rinse off in the
shower
[Music]
or you can exfoliate your face to
brighten your complexion for those who
are battling acne you just need a little
bit of honey in your life pour the rice
on the honey and mix it in now your
scrub is ready this is great for the
face and body and I recommend using this
in your shower honey has a lot of
healing properties it's an antibiotic
now let me show you how to make a rice
mask I have here rice paper wrappers or
in Vietnamese bun-chan these are edible
Vietnamese rice papers they're pretty
sturdy when flexible my mother and I
used to make spring rolls together
delicious and healthy get your scissors
ready we're basically going to cut out a
face shape the first piece will be your
forehead make a cut here and there
snippety-snip and here we have the piece
for the forehead
so now you're left with this just cut it
in half and make two cuts here and here
and now we have two pieces for your
cheeks here's what we have so far a
jacked-up pokeball if you want to take
the extra time to trim each piece so
that it fits your face perfectly I say
go for it when the mask is custom
tailored for your face it's going to
feel so much more comfortable cutting
this piece out so that it fits right
under my mouth and not over it
[Music]
here it is the complete rice mask now
just take out a dish pan or bowl and if
you want to get a little fancy schmancy
add green tea to the mix pour the warm
water in your pan or bowl and again the
green tea is optional green tea contains
antioxidants giving your skin a boost of
radiance all right now very quickly
place your mask in the water 30 seconds
is all you need
the rice paper will be soft and stretchy
but don't be fooled it's still strong
but gentle enough for the skin now it's
time to start placing each piece on your
face I'm going to start with my cheeks
get the other side too ooh perfect fit
now for the forehead this piece goes on
the lower part of the face make sure
it's nice and snug last piece is for the
nose and there you have it this mask has
a natural cooling sensation so it's
gonna feel really good so just wait
around 10 to 15 minutes until the
cooling sensation is gone it's dry and
ready to be peeled off tada
best part it's biodegradable and if you
want to be mean dare someone to eat it
just kidding
let's give our skin more love this year
