Homemade Face Mask for Glowing Skin

Homemade Face Mask for Glowing Skin


Do you wish you could have soft and glowing skin without spending a fortune on beauty products? Here’s a simple recipe for a homemade face mask that uses items you probably already have in your kitchen cupboard. The ingredients — extra-virgin olive oil, honey and baking soda — are really good for your complexion.

Both olive oil and honey have moisturizing properties that keep your skin soft and smooth. Olive oil penetrates deep into the skin, helping repair your skin, promoting elasticity and reducing blemishes.

Honey fights off bacteria, tightens your skin pores and protects your skin from sun damage and premature wrinkling. It also hydrates your skin and locks in moisture.

The baking soda works as a gentle exfoliating agent, reduces redness caused by breakouts and boosts circulation. It also helps treat acne and pimples by removing excess oil and dead skin cells.

Another advantage of this beauty mask is that it is suitable for all skin types. The ingredients are neither too drying nor too greasy.

How to Make a Homemade Face Mask for Glowing Skin


Things you will need:

Extra-virgin olive oil
Honey
Baking soda
A teaspoon
A bowl

Method

Put a teaspoon of extra-virgin olive oil in a bowl.
Next, add one-half teaspoon of honey.
Add one teaspoon of baking soda as well.
Mix the ingredients well to form a thin paste. If you want a thicker paste, add more baking soda.
Your homemade face mask is ready now. How easy is that?


How to Use

First, wash your face and pat your skin dry, leaving it slightly damp (water will help minimize the greasy feeling when you apply the mask).

Now, spread your homemade face mask on your face and neck in a circular motion like a scrub. Leave on for about 10 minutes and then rinse it off with lukewarm water. If your skin feels oily after the treatment, apply a toner and moisturizer.

  1. Facial scrubs can be made at home. Oatmeal is a passable ingredient. There are also tools like electric face brushes, exfoliating gloves or pouches which have facial cleanser. These tools are not recommended for sensitive skin. This type of exfoliation should not be done more than twice a week. Manchas na Pele
