Putting on a mask is a great way to relieve stress after a long day at work and helps the skin become healthier and smoother. But instead of having to go to the shop to choose the right mask, you can make them yourself right in your kitchen. It is both cheap and simple, but it also brings great benefits to your skin.
- Skin brightening mask
You need:
- 1 tablespoon of fresh turmeric/turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- Add water and stir until it becomes a bit thick
- You can add 1 tablespoon of honey or half an avocado.
The formula of this face mask uses a small amount of fresh turmeric and lemon to enhance the skin’s pigmentation. In addition, turmeric has been shown to help brighten skin and reduce wrinkles. You just need to mix it well and gently apply it to the skin. After 3 minutes, wash it off with water. Repeat at least 2 times a week for a period of 1 month. You will see that your skin has significantly improved.
- Skin softening mask
You need:
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- 1 teaspoon of coconut oil
- 1/4 avocado
- 2 drops of lavender essential oil
The composition of this mask contains essential fatty acids that help to hydrate and leave the skin feeling soft. Coconut oil provides moisture from deep within, honey contains antioxidants, and lavender essential oil helps to soothe redness. Use a brush to apply the mixture to your skin. You will have a wonderful home spa experience.
- Skin moisturizing mask
You need:
- 1/2 avocado
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- Some oats or oat bran
Dry, flaky skin will make you look less natural. If your current moisturizer isn’t working for your skin, then this homemade face mask will come to your rescue.
Since honey is an excellent moisturizer, it helps the skin retain moisture without feeling greasy. Furthermore, oats are an ingredient that beauty brands like Aveeno and Garnier add to their moisturizers. Oats have the ability to heal and regenerate tissue to help nourish and soothe your skin. The addition of avocado to this mask mix will remove roughness, giving your skin a smooth appearance.
You can also add raw milk to this mask mix. Because milk contains lactic acid, it gently exfoliates and brightens the skin without causing irritation.
- Skin tone improving mask
You need:
- Pure yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
You don’t have to spend a fortune on a spa or stock up on exfoliating products to get smooth skin. Just like raw milk, yogurt contains lactic acid which helps to make a visible difference to the skin by gently removing dead skin cells. In the meantime, newer cells will be revealed and help your skin become brighter and the skin tone is more even. The honey ingredient makes facial skin feel elastic and soft, while turmeric helps to improve pigmentation.
- Pore shrinking mask
You need:
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon honey
- A few drops of lemon juice
Both egg whites and lemon juice have pore-tightening properties. They significantly improve the problems associated with enlarged pores. The addition of honey to this mask mixture is essential. Honey will increase moisture and bring softness to the skin. If you take a few minutes to apply this mixture before applying makeup, you will have a perfect foundation.
