Homemade Face Masks

Hello beauties! Today I wanted to give you a budget friendly way to achieving beautiful skin. Below I have listed some quick, easy and simple face masks that can help you and your skin relax after a busy week. These face masks are great for all different types of skin, and are all-natural, perfect for those with sensitive skin. 

My first face masks requires a medium sized ripe banana. Banana is extremely good to use as a face mask as it moisturises the skin, leaving it looking and feeling softer. Mashing up the banana with a fork, gently apply this to your face and neck generously and leave it to set for around 10-20 minutes. Once set, rinse off with cold water and ta-dah, you skin should be feeling beautifully soft. For those with acne, add 2 tablespoons of honey and 1/4 cup plain yogurt to your mashed banana. 

So many of us are guilty when it comes to spending expensive creams. Using mayonnaise from your own refrigerator can sooth your skin and leave it feeling clean and smooth. Gently apply the mayonnaise all over your face, leave for 20 minutes then rinse.

For a little extra pampering, egg is particularly great. For dry skin, separate the egg and beat the yolk in a bowl. For oily skin, take the egg white and add a tiny drop of lemon or honey. As for normal skin, use all the egg and beat in a bowl. Once again apply to the face, relax and rinse off after 30 minutes.

A quick pick-me-up facial that will leave you not only feeling but looking better, is an oatmeal face mask. Combining 1/2 cup of hot (not boiling) water and 1/3 cup of oatmeal, let the mixture settle for around 2 to 3 minutes before mixing in 

 2 tablespoons plain yogurt, 2 tablespoons honey, and 1 small egg white. Apply a thin layer of the mask to your face, and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes. When rinsing, place a strainer in your sink to avoid clogging the drain with granules.

To give your face a quick helping hand, you don't need to go to a spa. Plain yogurt can cleanse and revitalise skin, whilst tightening pores.  Apply to your face generously and let the mask sit for 20 minutes before rinsing off. For an extra kick, add some orange zest to the mixture.
