You want to make a homemade face mask and you have no idea how? No problem – you probably don’t even know how many incredibly active ingredients can be found inside your kitchen cupboard. Simple homemade DIY face masks are a great way to take the stress out of a hard day of work. It is also an amazingly cheap cosmetic you can make on your own to nourish and hydrate your skin. We all know how cruel time can be on your skin. So, in order to stay young, it is exceptionally important to take care of your epidermis.

Hydrating/Moisturizing Honey Mask

Designed to hydrate and moisturize dry or irritated skin, this mask is able to nourish and feed your outer cutaneous layers. In fact, it uses several ingredients that are so tasty and nutrient that you can prepare a delicious breakfast with them. And they’re all packed with a powerful regenerating and humectant effect without feeling oily.

Mix 1 tablespoon of honey with half a mashed avocado and a handful of oats or oat bran. If you don’t have an avocado at home, you can substitute it with a tablespoon of yogurt or 3 tablespoons of milk. Make a soft paste and then massage it on your face for a while to help soothe inflammation and enhance tissue regeneration and healing.

Apple Cider Vinegar Facial mask

Apple cider vinegar is a highly beneficial substance made with the fermented juice of crushed apples. Hippocrates used vinegar to treat wounds, and Japanese Samurais drank it as a strengthening tonic. Cleopatra even dissolved some pearls in it to make the famous love potion she gave to Anthony. Because of its potent antimicrobial action, vinegar can be used to reduce itchy or reddened skin, seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, and acne.

Mix two cups of water with 1 tablespoon of vinegar, or 1/4 cup water with 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar. Gently apply this mixture to your face after carefully washing it, and let it dry for a while. Then rinse well to clean it completely, and see how your skin is luminous and tightened again.

If you think apple cider vinegar is miraculous wait until you see all the great things it can also do to your hair, teeth, and health. Joan Clark listed more than 40 benefits of the ingredient on the Tips Bulletin, including house, garden, and health needs. If you liked the face mask you’ll probably love all these amazing uses on and start using it right now. 

All-skin-types Mayonnaise Mask

You don’t know which one is your skin type? Sometimes it’s oily, sometimes it’s dry, and you don’t know which one is the best type of mask you should apply? Say no more, the mayonnaise-based mask is what you need! It will act as a gentle exfoliant that will stimulate the turnover of skin cells. Just don’t use it more than once per week since it may have a slightly irritating effect.

The best part of these homemade DIY face masks is that you don’t need to do anything to prepare it. Just take a scoop of whole-egg mayonnaise from your fridge and let it warm on the counter for roughly 30-60 minutes. Gently apply it over your face with your fingertips while avoiding the eye area. Leave it there for 15-20 minutes and then wipe it off with a towel before rinsing with lukewarm water.

Coconut Oil Exfoliating Mask

Coconut gives us water, food, and oil. It also can be considered a complete food as it’s incredibly rich in vitamins, minerals, and calories. The oil is great for the skin, hydrates the hair, is a healthy option on cooking and many more. That being said, we agree that coconut oil is a natural and simple ingredient everyone should have in their house.

It can be used as a substitute for expensive exfoliation masks if mixed with granulated sugar. It will help activate blood circulation, renew the cells and softens skin very easily. Mix 1 tablespoon of coconut oil with the same part of the sugar. Apply and massage it gently for a couple of minutes, with circular movements. 

Baking Soda Mask To Fight Acne

Not only great recipes this ingredient can be in. Baking soda can be used in skin care too. It helps dry out the pimple and its anti-bacterial property helps prevent further breakouts on your skin. If you have active acne, give this mask a try. But if your skin reacts with redness or irritation, stop using it. You’ll certainly find another face mask that works wonders for you. 

Mix it with the same amount of water until it becomes a paste. Not only you can use it on your face but also on single blackheads and whiteheads. Leave it on for three minutes and wash it off with lukewarm water. Make sure to clean your skin also before using it. After this, you can apply a toner to close your pores and pat dry the skin. It’s possible your skin feels a bit dry after the exfoliation. For this purpose, use a light non-comedogenic moisturizer to make sure it won’t clog your pores. 

Yes, sometimes raiding your own fridge is the best way to manufacture a fantastic face mask. Whether you want to moisturize your skin before going to bed or to find some relief from a minor skin condition such as acne, these simple homemade DIY face masks can literally do wonders. Just take your time stirring and mixing the right ingredients. Even if the first one you make doesn’t satisfy you, don’t worry. There’s a lot of room for improvement!
