Homemade facials

[IvyLee]

Homemade facials are very important for us if u want a healthier, younger and smoother skin (i know everyone wants it). Completely natural and good upon skin. It´s a must do at least once a week. Plus it´s very easy and economical .
You can find tons and tons of different recipes around internet.
Basically, the ingredients that should be included in facials (good and easy to be found) are :
-Tomato (Good for relief of dry or wrinkled skin)
-Oatmeal (Mix it with cream, it´s excellent for the removal of dead skin cells)
-Lemons ; alot of vitamin C
-Honey (My fave one, as moisture)
-Egg white; (I use this alot for firming the skin)
-Adding a bit of Aloe Vera, milk, oils, cucumber, cream or fruit acids are very useful .

Herbs are good too such as rose-petals,strawberry, jasmine, chamomile, lime, raspberry leaves, black-currant etc etc.
