Make Your Own Beauty Mask!

You will need:

1/4 of a cucumber, peeled and cooled

2 or 3 strawberries

1/4 of a papaya, seeds scooped out

1 tsp. of honey

1 tsp. of coconut oil

1/8 cup uncooked oatmeal

1/8 cup plain Greek yogurt

Blender

Directions: Blend the cucumber and 1/8 to 1/4 cup of water together until smooth. Place mixture to the side and rinse out your blender! Add the strawberries, papaya, honey, coconut oil, oatmeal and yogurt and blend together until smooth. Gently cleanse your skin, pat dry and apply the mask evenly (avoiding contact with eyes). You may also apply it to your neck and chest! Leave it on for 15 minutes. Rinse and pat dry. Apply the cucumber mixture to the same parts you applied the fruit mask and leave it on for 5-10 minutes. Rinse, pat dry and apply daily moisturizer!

How the ingredients work

Strawberries, papaya and yogurt all contain acids/enzymes/live cultures that break down dead skin cells, resulting in a less abrasive exfoliation. Oatmeal helps to calm the skin while honey and coconut oil restore moisture and fight off bacteria! The cucumber helps reduce inflammation, soothes the skin and also helps to tone.
