Hey guys! So recently, I was breaking out alot and I had discolouration and dry skin patches. Then a friend of mine taught me the "lemon juice and milk face mask" which I've been doing about 3 times a week for the past 1 month. And my skin feels softer! The patches are gone, and the discolouration is almost gone. So I thought I'd share it with you guys.
Lemons!
The benefits of lemon juice to the skin are sooo many. But to mention a few
-Cures acne
-tightens skin and fights wrinkles
-Removes black heads and scars
-tones and brightens
-Natural astringent
Generally...lemons are awesome ^^
Milk!
They claim milk is one of Queen Cleopatra's beauty secrets! Early egyptians bathed in milk and treated their skin with milk. Some benefits-
-natural moisturiser
- softens skin
- makes skin glow
- shrinks pores
- heals and exfoliates dead skin
But the major awesome ingredient in this mask isn't any of the two, but what they react to produce!
"Alpha hydroxy acid (AHA)"
Many creams are sold at high prices 'cause the contain AHA. This face mask has high AHA content, and is cheaper ^.^ Both lemons and milk contain natural AHA, but when added together, the lemon juice makes the milk curdle and creates even more of this awesomeness. AHA firms skin, removes scaly and dry dead skin, lightens skin...etc
HOW TO MAKE THE MASK:
You need - half lemon
- 2 table spoons milk powder
Steps-
-wash the lemon and squeeze half into a small bowl
-add 2 spoons of powdered milk and mix
-cut a small wedge of lemon and leave in the mixture
-allow to sit for 2-3 hours for best effects
-apply all over the face and leave to dry
-peel of mask and rinse face
-Repeat up to 3 times a week.
Honey and essential oils can be added to the mask if you please.
WARNING-
. Mixture would sting if it gets into your eyes
. Avoid sunlight as treatment may make skin photosensitive and more susceptible to sunburn
. Dont put mixture in the refrigerator. It might not work
