Maple Syrup Face and Hair Mask

From sticky to smooth, this homemade maple syrup face and hair mask does SO much for both your skin and your tresses!

In 2012 it was discovered that roughly 3,000 tons of maple syrup had been stolen from a storage facility in Quebec, Canada resulting in what came to be known as the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist. And while the robbers behind this historical heist were probably well aware of the needs and benefits of consuming maple syrup, I would venture to say that they did not know about all of the amazing ways maple syrup can benefit the hair and skin! It sure is liquid gold!

Packed with antioxidants and vitamins such as vitamin A and vitamin E, maple syrup can go beyond a waffle topper and be applied directly to the skin as it will help to nourish and rejuvenate dry, tired skin, while calming inflammation, locking in moisture, and boosting skin’s elasticity. All good things for fighting wrinkles, reducing acne and protecting against damage caused by free radicals, leaving skin healthy and youthful.
