Easy Homemade Masks for Your Face: 3 OR LESS INGREDIENTS
By: BeautyQA
The homemade mask experiment has been lingering in development
for many years in kitchen counters across the world, fueled by
the female imagination and the desire to have the best sleepover
of the decade. The security that we can fall back on our good,
old fridge just in case our favorite spas and salons were to
disappear off the face of the earth (yikes) is worth all the
effort of concocting those wonderful, green-face memories. Here
are some of the best recipes that were born from the mask making
madness! Be sure that you are not allergic to any of the
ingredients before you try them and always avoid the eyes when
applying!
Easy Homemade Maske Recipe for:
DRY SKIN
½ of a small avocado
2 spoonfuls of plain yogurt
Blend these until smooth and apply a generous layer to the face.
Be sure to avoid your eyes when applying. Leave on for 5-10
minutes and then rinse with cold water. Both ingredients are
known to be super skin softeners.
Easy Homemade Maske Recipe for:
OILY SKIN
1 eggwhite
1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
Beat the egg white until it becomes foamy and then stir in the
lemon juice. Apply a thin layer on the face avoiding the eyes.
You will soon feel the mask tightening your skin as it dries.
Leave for up to 15 minutes, then rinse with cold water. Lemon
juice is used in many astringents to wipe away excess oil on the
skin while the egg white is a good medium to temporarily tighten
pores.
Easy Homemade Maske Recipe for:
NORMAL OR COMBINATION SKIN
½ small green papaya
2 tablespoons of aloe vera juice
1 tablespoon of honey
Blend these ingredients until smooth and apply a thin layer to
the face avoiding the eyes. Leave for up to 15 minutes and rinse
with cold water. The active enzymes in the green papaya promote
exfoliation of old, dead skin cells. Aloe vera juice, considered
the best natural healer by many professionals, will promote
livelier, renewed skin. Besides being bacteriostatic, honey is a
known skin softener. Many companies sell products of similar
composition at $20 for 1.5 oz!
CLAY MASKS
water
clay
Choose a clay that suits your skin type. White clays such as
kaolin should be used for sensitive skin types. Most spa
therapists recommend this clay type. The darker clays (green or
earth color) are used for normal to oily skin types. Red clay is
generally not considered to be good. Mix the clay powder and
water until the consistency is similar to a thick lotion. Apply
a generous layer to the face avoiding the eyes. Leave until it
dries and rinse with cold water.
