A small amount of lemon juice, a table spoon or so almond oil & a good dollop of honey.
The mixture was a kind of greenish brown sludge colour which wasn't attractive but it smelt sweet and fresh.
I ran a bath with lavender oil ready for a relaxing wind down then smoothed the mixture over my face, I smoothed it right up to my hairline, I assume this mask would make a good hair mask too but having used a hot Almond Oil treatment last night i thought I would make this again next week for my hair to see what happens.
After ten or 15 mins i washed it off. My skin felt soft, clean and plumped. This was over an hour ago, my skin looks moisturised, soft and even which is unlike my skin, after a bath or shower my skin always goes blotchy due to the heat for a few hours. Maybe the moisture from the avocado helped calm my skin down.
🍠 Avocados contain purifiers which draw out bacteria from your pores. They contain vitamin E which is great for skin.
🍯 The honey is antibacterial, hygroscopic (water retaining) and full of antioxidants.
🍋The lemon juice is a good astringent but i would advise to only use lemon on your face on a night because it may react with the sun during the day drying your skin out, especially if you have sensitive skin. Lemon juice is great for oily skin.
🌰Almond Oil is anti ageing, reduces dark circles & gives your face a great glow.
Avocados are also yummy to eat and very good for you containing GOOD fats so you WON'T put on weight by eating half on a morning for breakfast. Research shows they can actually help you lose weight so please eat this superfood and don't be afraid of their 'fat' content. These fats are good!!!
The morning after my face feels very soft and still an even tone. I wouldn't do this every day, but once a week maybe. I think every day use would cause a break out in spots because of the amount of fatty oils in it. I think a honey lemon face wash for everyday use would be better x
