simple DIY face mask.

Hello beauties! 

I've heard countless times and seen a lot of people going natural with hair and skin care. By natural I mean using the most simple natural ingredients that you can find in the comfort of your kitchen to improve and care for hair/skin. I(like many other women) am always seeking new better skin remedies. Or even just new face scrubs/masks to help exfoliate my skin. The process of exfoliating is very important as it helps remove all dead skin cells and should be done at least once a week..

I have been using one that includes lemon, brown sugar, olive oil and honey. This mask is so good for the skin, it leaves my face feeling so smooth, clear and soft. It is great for all skin types even though the Olive oil content can make you feel like your skin is heavy but this is only whilst its on. 

BENEFITS:

lemon

- Natural source of Vitamin C, evens out skin tone, lightens dark spots and brightens the skin

- It contains a mild form of Alpha Hydroxy Acid, great for exfoliation

- Its a natural astringent which tightens pores

Brown Sugar

- Natural exfoliator 

- Contains glycolic acid which exfoliates to remove dead skin cells and evens out skin tone 

Olive Oil

- Very high in vitamin E which soothes and calms 

- Naturally moisturizes the skin 

Honey

- Antibacterial properties remove and prevent impurities 

- Natural humectant keeps skin hydrated

- Natural source of anti-oxidants, which helps prevent aging skin

I'd especially recommend this for people dealing with breakouts, dark marks and scarring. Honey just by itself is also really good!. This face mask will get rid of dead skin cells, remove impurities and brighten the skin. It really gives my face a nice glow :)

Happy exfoliating 

Take care
