Nourishing and Moisturizing mask with Avocado, Honey and Yogurt
This face mask is moisturizing, nourishing, smoothing and full of vitamins and minerals. It is perfect for dry and mature skin.

1 Avocado
1 tbs Honey
1 tbs Lemon juice
1 tbs Yogurt

Combine avocado, honey, lemon juice and yogurt in a blender. Let the mixture stand in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Apply mask on your face and neck and let set for about 10-15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water or just wipe off with a damp wash cloth.

Gentle peeling mask with Tomatoes  Tomatoes are a wonderful source of fruit acids (AHA = Alpha-hydroxy Acid). Fruit acids loosen the “glue” between dead skin cells and aid exfoliation,
leaving your face very smooth and soft.

1-2 Tomato pulp.
10 ml (2 tsp) Honey
4 g Cornmeal/Oatmeal OR 1 g Xanthan gum

Combine tomatoes, honey and cornmeal/oatmea OR Xanthan Guml in a blender. Apply formed paste to face and let set for about 10-15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

Cleansing fruit mask   Great homemade mask that helps rid your skin from the dead cells and congestion.  The Bromelain enzyme in the pineapple is particularly effective at doing this.

50 g Pineapple
50 g Melon (except watermelon)

100 ml Water
8 g Cornmeal (polenta) OR Oatmeal. 

Combine pineapple, melon, water and cornmeal/oatmeal in a blender. Apply formed paste to face and let set for about 10-15 minutes. Gently wipe off with a damp wash cloth.
