Start Your Week Looking Good and Glowing. :-)

Start your week looking great and glowing by using this home-made face mask made with household items. All you need are three basic ingredients that almost every household has: Sour cream (or yoghurt; it's good for the skin, it reduces age spots, acne and lots more), Banana, and Honey.

This mask is also good for acne prone skin since bananas are packed with anti-bacterial properties and can be used to cure acne and blemishes. Sour cream contains lactic acid which is an amazing skin-enhancing ingredient.

You can even apply sour cream alone as a mask when you need a quick pick me up glow! And lastly, honey is packed with skin- saving antioxidants which are great for slowing down aging. Well, actually honey is good for almost everything.

Here is the recipe you need.

#1 Wash your face with a cleanser and towel dry

#2 In a small bowl, take half of a banana and mash it using a fork till it’s no longer a solid.

#3 Add 2 tablespoons of refrigerated sour cream or yoghurt.

#4 Add 1 tablespoon of honey.

#5 Mix all the ingredients together till you get a paste texture.

#6 Using your fingers, apply gently all over your face and neck (you can use more than one layer)

#7 Leave mask on for 20 mins.

#8 Rinse with cleanser in lukewarm water, when face is clean then splash cool (not cold) water on your face. Pat dry with a towel and apply your favourite moisturiser. It's that simple!

Let me know how this mask works for you, I would love to hear from you.

Stay beautiful... :-) :-) :-)
