Thrifty Thursday: Facial Mask

Facial Mask

Why pay a bunch of money going to the spa or buying pre-made facial masks when you can make your own! Today I’m going to tell you how to do just that using everyday ingredients in your home.

So here is everything you will need:

*NOTE: you don’t have to use these exact brands*
 

2 packages of oatmeal, 2 tablesppons of milk
1 tablespoon of sugar, honey, and applesauce
1.5 tablespoons of yogurt

I will start off by telling you what each ingredient does for you skin.

Oatmeal: Helps hydrate your skin
Sugar: It scrubs the skin of dirt, but does not tear the skin like salt.
Yogurt: The Lactic acid in yogurt is a great exfoliate that refines pores, as well as cleansing and soothing your skin
Milk: Helps remove dead skin
Honey: Kills bacteria and keeps skin sterile
Applesauce: Evens out skin tone

Next you are going to mix all the ingredients together. BUT FIRST, make sure to ground the oatmeal into a powdery substance!

And here is your finished product! As far as applying the mask to your face and removing it, you’re on your own. Just make sure your face is dry when you are applying the mask. Now all you have to do is light a candle and listen to some calm music for a relaxing moment. Enjoy~
