WELLNESS WEDNESDAY: 3 natural face masks you can make from home

1. BANANA Who needs Botox when you have Bananas? Yes, that is correct! Bananas are excellent for the skin since they are rich in vitamin A, B & E. They will leave your skin feeling soft and glowing. Vitamin A increases cell turn over (which is a natural anti aging remedy) while Vitamin E moisturizes. Honey is a natural anti-bacterial, so it will help with acne while it is also a natal moisturizer it will hydrate your skin and restore current marks and acne false ups. Ingredients: - one ripe banana - one tablespoon of honey Directions: Mash up the banana until you form a paste, mix in the honey then apply all over your face and neck. Let it dry (aprox. 20 mins or so) then rinse off with cold water.
2. OATMEAL This is one of my new obsessions, not only is it delicious and healthy for you to consume but it is also a great exfoliant. Oatmeal absorbs oils and removes impurities while gently exfoliating your skin. It also has an abundant amount of anti oxidants so it helps renew and restore skin. Ingredients: - 1/2 cup of natural oats - 1 lemon wedge - 2 tablespoons of milk Directions: Grind the oats to create a powder, stir in the milk until it forms a paste and squeeze in the lemon juice. Apply the mask all over your face and neck, let dry and then rinse of with warm water making sure you're moving your hands in a circular motion to scrub.
3.GREEK YOGURT Yogurt is not only a great on the go snack but it also is an amazing moisturizer and "quick fix". It contains zinc which contains anti inflammatory properties helping with redness, acne bumps or rashes. It contains vitamins B5, B2 & B12 which is great for restoring and regenerating cells, leaving you "glowing". The lactic acid (used in various skin care products) moisturizes skin preventing wrinkles and reducing already formed ones. Ingredients: - 1/2 cup of greek (non sweetened yogurt) - 1/4 of orange with pulp (the vitamin C in the orange will awaken the skin) Directions: Mix ingredients together, slather on and let it sit for around 15-20 mins then rinse off with cold water.
These are my eco friendly, no botox, no chemicals, au natural remedies to give your skin a quick pick me up! Hope you enjoy!!!!!
