Avocado Facial Mask Recipes - Hydrating Dry and Sensitive Skin
Author: Biljana Drake
These two avocado facial mask recipes were given to me by my friend Joan who spends most of her time gardening, exposed to sun on a daily basis.
Benefits of avocado are numerous: it is filled with monounsaturated fats, Vitamin B and E, nutrients excellent for moisturizing and rejuvenating dry or tired skin. First recipe is for Avocado Face Mask for Dry and Sensitive Skin
Ingredients:
1 avocado
3-4 drops of almond oil
Preparation
- Peel and mash avocado and add almond oil until the mass is consistent.
- Apply to face while massaging it gently.
- Let it rest for 30 minutes and rinse off with warm water.
Before you move on to the next mask, here is avocado trivia for you:Can you answer this? Is avocado a fruit or vegetable?
It's a fruit :) For some reason, I always thought it was a vegetable.
On to the next facial mask….
Moisturizing Avocado facial mask recipe
Ingredients:
1 avocado
1 teaspoon of apple vinegar
1 egg white
3 teaspoons of olive oil
Preparation:
- Peel and mash avocado and start adding the rest of the ingredients. Egg white should be beaten before you put it in.
- When the mass is done, apply to face and wash off after 20 minutes or so.
- This mask provides great moisture for skin, making it soft and elastic.
I use both of these masks weekly and really like the results that I get. I also recommend them to all my friends who like sun tanning, they are an excellent way to replenish the skin’s moisture after a long day in the sun :)Biljana Drake is an avid collector of homemade skin care recipes.
