Using fresh strawberries has amazing benefits when applied topically to the skin. They are super high in Vitamin C and alpha hydroxy acids, which slough off dead skin cells, help to lighten sun spots with repeated use and reveal a smoother, fresher complexion and encourage new skin cell growth. The acids in the strawberries can also help with blemishes. When combined with the brown rice flour, it becomes both a mask and an exfoliator.
