How do you make a simple face mask?

The first face mask we want to show is a nourishing one. So, if the cold weather hasn’t been nice to your skin, this mask is perfect for keeping your skin looking smooth and nourished. So, what do you need to make it? Here are the ingredients:

  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp organic spirulina powder
  • mix of essential oils (you can use 1 or 2 drops of a few different essential oils of your choice)

How to use the mask?

  1. Combine the ingredients in a small bowl and make sure they are mixed well.
  2. Take a spoonful of the mask and put it in the middle of your palm. Add a few drops of water and spread it onto your face.
  3. Let it dry for about 15 minutes, rinse gently and pat your face dry.
  4. You can keep the mask refrigerated for up to 1 month.
