Easy & Effective DIY Facial Masks!

in #beauty5 years ago

  Now that it’s winter, I figured that it would be a good idea to give beauty tips and hacks for this very cold and dry season. During winter most of us experience very dry and irritated skin and what better way to treat your skin than with these amazing, natural and gentle ingredients that you most probably already have in your home and can afford?! With that said, today’s tip is using a mask that literally consists of just three ingredients!    

 

What you’ll need:  

  • Honey (tablespoon) 
  • Avocado (half) 
  • Olive Oil or even Coconut oil (teaspoon) 
  • A bowl
  •  A teaspoon for mixing   

What to do:  

  •  In a bowl, mix in the honey, avocado and olive oil.  
  • Mix until smooth and well incorporated. 
  • Apply onto the face.
  • Leave it on your face for 15-20 minutes. 
  • Wash it off with just water and moisturize your face.       

   

If you have very oil skin, you’ll need to leave out the oil and just use the following ingredients and follow the steps above. By making sure that you leave out the oil in the facial mask you will decrease the risk of you having a pimple breakout.

What you’ll need:  

  • Avocado (half)  
  • Egg (1)  
  •  Lemon juice (teaspoon)  
  • Honey (tablespoon)  


 Using avocado into your facial mask, you are moisturizing, exfoliating, and you are eliminating the oxidative-stress and reducing the appearance of winkles. In addition to all that, you are increasing the elasticity in your skin!

 Honey has the ability to boost your complexion, sooth and moisturize your skin, slow down the aging process in your skin, while also treating and preventing acne because of its antibacterial properties!  

Olive oil fights off cancer causing cells and leaves your skin feeling extra smooth and soft. While coconut oil reduces inflammation, protects the skin from harmful bacteria, softens skin, has anti-aging properties, and rejuvenates the skin.  

Egg whites help to tighten your skin and cause your pores to shrink and egg yolks help to make your skin feel moisturized, nourished, and hydrated!

 Lemon juice will help brighten up dark areas on your face and clear acne because of its antibacterial properties. In addition to this, lemon juice can reduce pigmentation that is in the form of spots and dark patches on your skin!      

#Tip

Be sure to apply a small amount of these facial masks on your hand before you apply them to your face to check if your skin reacts badly to the ingredients. 


I hope this information was very helpful to you and I hope that you receive amazing results using these masks!
