Homemade Facial Mask Tips
Depending on your skin type, here are some great masks to try.
- For oily skin use some plain Milk of Magnesia ( Milk of magnesia is a liquid used in medicinal applications as an antacid, it looks milky white available n Market easily ) , rub it on and let dry, then rinse with lukewarm water. It absorbs oil wonderfully
- Dissolve a teaspoon of baking yeast in a small amount of warm milk, wait until foamy, then apply
- Beaten egg whites with a few drops of lemon juice. Very good to getting rid of blackheads also
- Normal Skin / combination skin mix one egg and 1/2 cup cooked instant oatmeal and a teaspoon olive oil until smooth. Spread on your face and leave 15 min then rinse.
- For dry skin, mix one egg yolk, one teaspoon honey and a teaspoon olive oil and some vitamin E oil if you have it. Smooth on and leave on for 15 min. , rinse in lukewarm water and pat dry. If your skin is a bit dry you can put a dab or two of either olive oil, or any other light oil, or plain crisco if you want something heavier, on your moist skin after washing or a mask and your face is set without the $$ some people spend for the same look.
Homemade Facial Scrub Instead of Soap
- First, clean your face with water only. Never use soap.
- You can open your pores with hot compresses ( washcloth ) For a facial scrub, moisten oatmeal to a “goo”, use it to scrub your face (not around your eyes). Wash off with cool water.
- You may also make a paste of the oatmeal and allow it to dry..remove with cool water.
- You may also beat an egg white, put it on your face and let it dry, rinse with cool water.
- Use warm cloth to open pores, smear on honey, leave on 15 to 30 minutes, rinse off with warm water, and then use cold water to close pores. Use for 3 days continuesly and then once a week. Mix a little gound oatmeal with the honey is also very good for your skin care.
- Mix three tablespoons olive oil and one tablespoon kosher salt mix and gently rub into dry skin. Do not use around eye area. This can works great on elbows and feet also.
- Beat one egg white until it is frothy. Spread it all over your face. Wait until it dries. Rinse it off. Now you feels very clean and “tight” after this application.
- The best homemade facial mask is a raw egg yolk. just apply the raw yolk to your face and neck for 30 minutes and rinse with cool water. Egg yolks are high in vitamin A. The mask is very effective in healing blemishes.
- It is a good idea to test the mask first. Apply a small amount behind your ear, wait 20 minutes, then wash off. Then wait 24 hours. If the skin behind your ear is normal, then go ahead and use the mask.
- In all cases, spread mixture on face and allow to dry. Rinse thoroughly with cool water.
