Soothing Facial Masque from your Kitchen

December 4th, 2009

Take 1/4 cup of oatmeal and put it through your blender or coffee grinder to make a fine powder. Mix together well your ground 1/4 cup oatmeal, 2 tb. milk, and 1 tb. honey until it forms a paste. Pat on your face with your fingertips, and leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse off.

For oily skin substitute lemon juice or cider vinegar for the milk, which will make the facial slightly astringent.

For very dry skin add 1 tb. of either olive oil or coconut oil to moisturize your skin.

Making your own facial masque is very cost effective and doesn’t put chemicals or dyes into our groundwater when flushed down the drain. Since you mix this facial up yourself, there is no plastic packaging to end up in a landfill, and less carbon is created in the making of it. Oatmeal is wonderful for your skin, makes it very smooth and soft.
