What is a good facial mask recipe?!?!?

I want to make a homemade facial what are some good recipes? Is oats and honey a good one?What is a good facial mask recipe?!?!?
try them and see which one works best for you...











*INGREDIENTS: duck tape


INSTRUCTIONS: take a piece of duck tape the size of your nose from between the eyes to the where your nose connects to your face. Cut a square out on each corner and start pressing it to where you have no air in it and leave on about 5 minutes. Then pull it off and cleanse your face and dab with cold water. Lots cheaper than thenose strips that you buy in the store.





*INGREDIENTS: Sugar, water


INSTRUCTIONS: Wash your face with sugar!! How this works is the sugar crystals helps remove the dead skin (almost like sand paper), cleans and opens clogged pores, and gets rid of skin oils that helps cause acne. Wash face with warm soap and water but do not dry. Wet one hand and pour sugar (granulated) into that hand. Now pat the sugar onto your face with the other hand all over the face and especially on areas where facial oils are always present (nose, cheeks, chin, etc). Now rub the sugar onto/into these areas using very warm water. It will feel like you are scrubing your face abrasively or scratching it, but that's what it is suposed to feel like because you actually are. Once you've done this for a few minutes (4 to 5 or more), rinse your face completely with warm water, followed by a rinse with cold water (which closes opened pores). Your face will feel really clean and refreshed. It may be a little red but that goes away quickly.





INGREDIENTS: Honey, lime juice, olive oil, Himalaya Neem face pack, tumeric paste, gram dhall flour, milk


INSTRUCTIONS: I've had pretty bad acne since I was very young and finally my father who is a doctor put me on roaccutane. This worked for a while but then stopped producing the results it did when I first started. This lady who lives in my apartment block saw my face one day and gave me this paste she makes to use. U basically put about 7 tbs of the gram flour,2 tbs olive oil, half a tsp of the tumeric paste, a large squirt of the himalaya neem face mask, a squirt of honey and half a lime. Then you put in enough milk so that the mixture is smooth. You have to keep it in the fridge or the milk will turn to yoghurt. Apply it as a mask everyday at night time b4 bed and your acne should clear up quite a lot.


INGREDIENTS: Apple Cider Vinegar [ACV]


Cranberry Juice [not needed really]


INSTRUCTIONS: I have had moderate acne for about two years now and it茂驴陆s been good and bad at times. Right now it is particularly bad and I just discovered the miracle of ACV [Apple Cider Vinegar]. Although I can honestly say I hate this stuff it works AMAZINGLY well. I apply it topically [after I wash my face - morning and night] with a cotton pad, it stings a little but I've gotten used to it. This dries up pimples and makes them scab a hell of a lot faster than any store bought acne medicine I have EVER bought. I also drink it [so terrible], 2 TBSP morning and night, but I usually dump it into cranberry juice and plug my nose and just chug it. I have noticed a HUGE improvement in just two days. I hope this helps, just stick with it!





*INGREDIENTS: Tea Tree Oil


INSTRUCTIONS: Grab a cotton swab and dab some tea tree oil onto it. Apply to the pimple. Amazingly, this worked great on my acne, after trying so many products given by the dermotologist to over-the-counter products. Keep in mind, tea tree oil does dry up the skin very well.





*Ingredients = 1. toothpaste


2. mud/clay mask


3. gentle facial cleanser


Instructions = Hello. Before I start on this remedy, please know that half of the above remedies are bull crap. You can't get a pimple from eating chocolate or french fries the day before!! Pimples take 2-3 weeks to form, so feel free to indulge. Anyway, I suggest: put the mud mask on, and let it dry. You can do that multiple times a week if you so choose. After gently removing the dried mask, put some toothpaste on the pimple. This helps dry it up. Do this right before bed, though, because toothpast takes a loooong time to dry. In the morning, the pimple should be clearer, not necessarily completely gone. You can also put ice on the pimple for a minute to numb it before cleansing. Anyway, good luck with this!!!





*Ingredients = - aniz tea


-honey


-water


-ice cube


-crest cinnimon toothpaste


-baking powder


-cornstarch


-flax seed oil capsules


-eye drops


-sulfur





Instructions = here are alot of different things you can do to cure


acne (dont do them all at the same time)


1) buy some ';aniz'; tea and make a cup. keep the tea bag in the hot water and let the water cool down until it is warm enough to put on your face. then use the tea bag and put it on ur acne spots and leave it on for about a minute and repeat this along all of the affected areas on your face. after doing this i recomend putting honey on your face and leave that on for as long as you can or overnight


2) rub an ice cube all over your face for about 5 minutes, after awhile it numbs your face. to make it easier to stand wrap the ice cube in a paper towel so you can feel the cold but it doesnt directly burn you.


3) mix baking powder with honey in a little dish and put this on the affected areas on your face and leave it on until you have to do anything recomended for at least an hour. but becareful that it doesnt get all over because it tends to drip


4) dab crest cinnimon toothpaste (i found this works the best) on your pimples before you go to bed and when you wake up rinse off, it may appear like you have a whitehead in the morning but thats actually just tooth paste crusted over so remain calm!


5) whenever you can try to keep ALL hair away from your face. (i have bangs and would always get pimples on my forehead, but now i just clip them back and my forehead has gotten much better)


6) in a dish just place pure cornstarch and keep that in your bathroom, with a cotton ball dab the cornstarch on the pimples and this helps to dry them, leave it on over night or when your just around the house.


7) when washing your face with anything for acne try to only wash the t-zone (forhead nose and chin) because that is what causes the most oil and often times washing parts of your face with no excess oil drys it


and causes your body to make more and more oil causing more pimples all over your face.


8) take flax seed oil in a pill form everynight it can be found in any health store.


9) i havent tried this before but it makes sense, try putting drops of visine eye drops on pimples that are red and inflamed this halps to


make it less noticable.


10) try to buy some yellow sulfur and mix this with a little biy of honey and dab it on your face. sulfur helps breakdown whiteheads and blackheads





hope they help!

There are many different ingredients you can use for facial masks, many you will find in your kitchen already. Here are three different types of recipes:





Oatmeal Mask


1/2 cup cooked oatmeal


1 egg


1 tablespoon avocado oil





Mix all the ingredients until smooth then spread over a clean face leaving on for about 15 minutes. Wash off with warm water. This recipe is great for dry and sensitive skins.





Deep Cleansing Clay Mask


1 ounce of green or red clay


3 tablespoons rose water


1 teaspoon vegetable glycerin


1 drop Geranium essential oil


2 drops Grapefruit essential oil


1 drop Juniper essential oil





Mix the clay and the rose water together to make a smooth paste then add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Spread over a clean face and leave on for no more than 15 minutes washing off with warm water. This recipe is especially good for oily skins.





Watermelon Mask


Mash in a glass bowl about 1/2 cup of fresh watermelon. Spread this over a clean face - you will need to lie down as the thin consistency may cause it to slip off. To help keep it in place you may need to place a couple of clean face cloths on each side of your face. Keep this on for about 20 minutes and wash off with cool water. This mask is great for the summer and contains high amounts of vitamins A, B, and C which will help your skin to look glowing and healthy.
oatmeal and a washcloth. put oatmeal in a washcloth and run it under warm water scrub your face with it.plain yogurt makes a good mask. also cucumbers under the eyes. lemons help lighten your elbows and hair or even lemon juice in your hair in the sun lightens it. mayo for conditioner and warm tea bags for eyes
yes honey and oats are great. I you get pimples a little baking soda and clarifying shampoo made into a paste helps
