Whether that's due to our diets, stress or hygiene (or even a mixture of all the above), we luckily have a few tricks up our sleeve that will make your skin instantly feel and look better. Here are some of our favorite ways to detox, here at
Java For Beauty.
Hydrate

It detoxifies the skin, flushing out toxins and impurities from our diet. If you consume sodium-rich foods, drinking plenty of water will offset some of the negative effects that it gives. Water aids in reducing a puffy appearance underneath the eye.

Water soaks up all the vitamins and nutrients from the fruits and veggies infused in your cold drink. Here's a ridiculously easy, favorite recipe of ours to try out!
Cucumber Detox Water
- 1 cucumber, sliced
- 1 lemon sliced
- Mint leaves
- 2 liters of water
Combine all these ingredients together into a pitcher or mason jar and let your detox water sit overnight (this allows the water to soak up all the nutrients).
Cleanse

Throughout the day, dirt, sweat and oil builds up on your skin, which creates sebum and clogged pores, producing acne. Make sure that this is one of the first measures you take to detoxify your skin. Good news, we carry
hundreds of different cleansers on our site. Some of our favorites are
Epionce's Gentle Foaming Cleanser and
GlamGlow POWERCLEANSE. These products do a fantastic job at taking off makeup, eliminating impurities and washing away all the dirt and grime that builds up on the skin.
Mask it Up!

Bliss Night Night Facial in a Box. This set is complete with a clay face mask and is exceptional at cleansing, treating and moisturizing the skin. You'll wake up looking instantly renewed!
Tone

Obagi's Rx C-Balancing Toner is ideal to help treat skin damage, large pores, and hyper-pigmentation while maintaining moisture with Aloe Vera essences.
