Sumitha,I completely agree with Shaynee in this matter :).
Well I wanted to add something here....Chocolate can even kick start a migraine. Thats what our doctor told us when we went for a migraine checkup for one of my friend :(.

Yeah Shaynee is right, I would just start licking it off my face, no wet towels needed.And Shilpa is true that choclates can trigger a migraine, but of we use it as facial we shd be fine.

Read about these facials a while ago somewhere. I would rather eat the chocolate than apply it on my face.
