5 Homemade Acne Facial Masks


Apples and honey:
You may be more tempting to cut the apple, drizzle some honey on it and eat as a dessert, but resist to the temptation and make face mask so you can feel the benefits of apple and honey to your skin.
You need: 1 grated apple and 2 tablespoons of honey.
To the grated apple add the honey and stir until combined. Put the mixture on your face and allow it to act 20 minutes. Then wash your face with warm water. This mask will not dry, so do not wait for that to happen to wash it.
Oatmeal and basil:
Basil and oats are well known allies in fighting acne and helping to thoroughly clean the skin and refresh it. They can be used separately (oatmeal mixed with water as a mask, basil tea as a toner), but together are a powerful combination that seems favorable to skin prone to acne.
Yo need: 2-3 teaspoons of basil, oatmeal and water.
In a bowl with hot water, put 2-3 teaspoons of dried basil and leave it until the tea reaches room temperature. In the meantime, take a few tablespoons of oatmeal and put it in a blender to make it a powder. If you have powdered oatmeal (oat flour) skip this step. When the solution of basil is cool, drain the leaves and start putting a small amount of the oatmeal and stir. If it is too thick add basil tea, if it is too watery add more oatmeal. The mixture should be thick enough to be applied on the face without dripping.
Gently apply the mask on your face and let it act for 20 minutes. While rinsing the face, you can do circular movements to massage the skin.
Egg white and lemon:
The egg white will help to reduce the redness of the skin and to ease irritation and as a final result you will get smoother and tighter skin.
You need: 1 egg and few drops of lemon.
Separate the egg white from the yolk. Beat the egg white until you get soft peaks. If you have oily skin, add a few drops of lemon (you can skip the lemon). Apply the egg white foam on your face and allow it to act for 15 minutes. Wash your face with warm water.
Honey and yogurt:
The honey and yogurt mask will make your skin hydrated, it will clean the grease and impurities and will reduce the redness caused by acne. Another positive side of this mask is that it do not dries the skin and can be used for all skin types.
You need: 1 teaspoon of honey and 1 teaspoon of yogurt.
Put the honey in a clean bowl and warm it slightly in a microwave oven to make liquid. If you do not have a microwave, simply dip the bottom of the container in hot water. Then add the yogurt and stir well. Apply the mixture on the face, putting more on the places affected by acne. Leave to act for 15-20 minutes, then wash with warm water.
Salty water:
Salt naturally cleans the skin. It does not only purifies the pores, but also dries the already emerging acne. Swimming in salty sea water is an excellent treatment for acne, but since we can not afford it during all year, it is good to use the power of salt at home.
You need: 5 teaspoons of salt (sea salt or cooking salt) and water.
To the salt add one by one teaspoon of water. Constantly stir and gradually add water until you get a thick mixture (paste). Leave the mixture to stand for 10 minutes, then apply it on the face and allow it to act 20 minutes. Wash your face with warm water.
