Natural Skin Care Recipes

Skin care recipes that use natural ingredients from your own home kitchen.  The more natural the ingredients the more effective and soothing to your skin.

Anti-wrinkle mask

Beat 1 egg yolk into 2 Tbsp of whole milk. Gently wash face and apply. Leave on for five minutes, rinse with warm water, and follow with a moisturizer.

Remedy for oily, irritated, or broken-out skin - Mix 2 Tbsp oatmeal, 4 Tbsp plain yogurt, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, 1 Tbsp chopped parsley, and 1 tsp olive oil until it forms a paste. Massage into skin and allow it to sit for five minutes. Rinse skin with warm water.

Moisturizer I

Moisturising morning and evening with a natural moisturiser hydrates, moisturises and protects the skin from daily pollutants. For a moisturizing and nourishing mask, blend a mashed banana with white cosmetic clay and apply.

For normal skin, mix 1 cup yogurt, 1 tablespoon orange juice and 1 tablespoon lemon juice and apply it on your face. Clean it off after 20 minutes.

For dry skin, use a mixture of cooked oatmeal and honey; it is a very good moisturize and cleansing agent
