Hey Steemit friends!
I've recently found this to be my favorite DYI face mask. I haven’t bought a store-bought mask in years. I used to get regular facials but have found with the right products and whipping up my masks at home, there’s really no need. You’ll likely have most of the ingredients on hand and know exactly what you’re putting on your skin. Store-bought masks and monthly facials can also add up major $$$, so this mask is clearly a DYI no-brainer.
Why this mask works? Avocado's contain vitamin E, healthy fats and antioxidants to keep your skin smooth and supple. I love this mask before and/or after a long flight or during the winter months to help keep my face moisturized. The lemon juice and apple cider vinegar contain citric acid which brightens your skin tone and reduces redness. Both ingredients also contain natural cleansing properties to help keep breakouts at bay. Honey can also help brighten and cleanse the skin in addition to it’s natural antibacterial properties...In short, everything in this mask will love your skin to pieces.
Clean Karma’s Moisturizing Avocado Face Mask: Yields about half a cup
½ avocado
1 tablespoon raw apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon organic, raw (if possible) honey
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Combine ingredients in a bowl and apply to your face (Or any area in need of a little love. Think body breakouts...).
Let the magic happen for about 10-15 mins.
Rinse with warm water.
Follow with moisturizer if desired.
Sexy right? I promise, your skin will thank you...
