For many, Valentine’s Day is a time to show yourself a little love.
Scripps News food and wellness contributor Jessica DeLuise, PA-C, recommends a DIY face mask made with yogurt, honey and blue spirulina.
She says the glow-boosting blend can gently exfoliate, hydrate and nourish the skin, making it perfect for a relaxing night in.
