Put on your mask

Keeping my skin healthy is as important for me as wearing nice clothes. I follow a daily beauty regime, but sometimes my combination skin gets rebellious and I need something extra.


Not so long ago, I tried a honey mask and it surprisingly works. It works as a peeling, removing dead cells, and letting your skin smooth and glowing.

You only need some honey and sugar. Apply it over your clean dry face in circular movements. Rinse it off and moisturize. Wait for the next morning to see the results.

I do a mask by mixing a few aspirins with water, and it works really well. Household beauty tips are underrated!

Hmmmm, sounds simple. I'm going to try that.

I really want to try that! My acne prone skin is just getting horrible in this hot weather!

Sounds like a good idea. Although I'd probably end up in a huge sticky mess.

Thankfully my face has always been more breakout-free than not but as I get older I'm realizing it's not getting better...but worse?! ahah

Thanks for the tip!

wait, i need more details - you rinse it off, right? do you put it on a clean dry face or a clean damp face? do you leave it on for a few minutes?

would you describe your skin as sensitive or oily or what? if this is good for oily skin, then it won't be good for me (very dry), but it sounds pleasant/yummy, so i would love to try it...

Editor: thanks for your questions. I edited the post answering them. I have combination skin. Depending on the part of my face (and some other factors like the weather) it could be dry or oily.

Ooh, this is so natural and diy of you! Is it hard to wash off the stickiness afterwards though?

María said...

^Not at all!

i'm intrigued!
like harrods girl, i would think it would be rather tricky with the stickiness of the honey.

but you recommend the results?

I want to try this. I'm usually so lazy when it comes to beauty routines...

Elizabeth said...

This sounds interesting. I've never tried it.
