Fall for February: DIY Face Mask


Honey and oatmeal Face Mask: 


As you may know, I have incredibly dry skin. Most masks available on the high street are focused towards oily spotty skin, which I do not have. Therefore apart from the occasional one, most masks I can not use, so I usually make them at home!

Ingredients needed: 

1 Tablespoon of oatmeal
1 teaspoon of honey
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon of Olive Oil (or less)

Mix that all up in a small dish, and apply it with an old foundation brush (which should be clean!) onto cleansed skin. Leave it for 15 minutes, whilst it's setting you will feel the egg yolk tightening your skin, whilst it's doing it's magic you can read a book, watch a youtube video etc. 
WARNING: you will look like this!


Now the Oatmeal is great for your skin because it prevents your skin drying out after the mask is washed away, and it also moisturises and repairs your skin, leaving it looking very glowing. 

The honey moisturises and nourishes your skin, again leaving a very glowly youthful appearance. 

Egg yolks are good for spots/pimples as it prevents the clogging of pours and reduces the bacteria in the skin.

Lastly the Olive Oil is good for cleansing  and purifying your skin and leaving it looking much more hydrated. 

After you have washed it away, you will have fresh glowy skin, that looks much more hydrated and feels soft and plump! It's amazing, you should try it if you have dry/normal skin, it's perfect and you will have all the ingredients in your cupboards at home!
