Face Care: The Top 3 Face Masks to Try at Home

Written by Tonia ~ Category: Beauty & Wellbeing ~ Read Time: 3 min.

We can all agree that taking care of ourselves is very essential since, if we properly take care of ourselves, we can eventually take care of our loved ones. Even though some may argue that self-care and beauty treatment is a form of vanity, this is completed misinterpreted nowadays. Taking care of yourself is not vain; self-care can be reflected in many ways: nutrition, exercise, fashion, intellectual and mental care, as well as beauty care. We should stop demonizing the fact that self-care is only about reading books and learning new things. It is also taking care of our physical self by treating it the way we treat our minds.

As far as I am concerned, face care is particularly important since our face is the first thing we see in the mirror every morning. And if we want to be happy and ready to seize the day, we should establish healthy routines which will make our face shine-accompanying it with a big smile every day!

Think it another way: if beauty wasn’t so important, would the beauty industry be a billion-dollar industry? This happens because people DO want to treat themselves properly. Even though there is a tone of facial care products globally and exceptional quality, in some cases, what our skin really needs is to be treated naturally, without any additives or conservatives or, for some reason, some of us do not want to spend every month a fortune in beauty products.

So, there is no reason to worry for those who want to treat us affordably and do not have time for treatments that take a lot of our time! Nature has taken care of us, too. With a few natural ingredients that we can already find in our kitchen and refrigerator, we can make easy-peasy face masks that will give us glowing, healthy, hydrated, and rejuvenated face skin! After a lot of searching and some advice from our grandma, we tried several recipes, and here we present the top 3!

3. Mask with avocado and yogurt

Ingredients

¼ avocado

1 teaspoon of yogurt

Preparation

Mash the avocado in a bowl and add the yogurt. Mix them very well until they become a uniform thick mixture.

Application

Apply the mixture on your face in addition to the eyes and the area around them. Leave the mask on for 10-15 minutes, and then rinse your face with cold water. Wipe gently.

Use

The application of the masks can be repeated 1-2 times a week.

Important Tip

Before each application, we check on another part of the body, e.g., inside of our hand, for any rashes or allergies that may occur and which we do not know in advance. In case we are allergic to any of the ingredients of the masks mentioned, we do not use the mask!
