Homemade Skin Care Recipe: Skin-softening avocado mask

submitted by Hollie, Perth, Australia

Tip description / details:
This fantastic homemade face mask is used at the famed East Hampton Spa. I use it on my combination skin and it works perfectly.

Ingredients:
1/2 avocado; 1 egg; 1 tablespoon plain yogurt; 1 teaspoon baking soda (bicarbonate); 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, adds extra moisture)

How to prepare:
Place all ingredients in a bowl and blend together to form a smooth paste.

How to use:
Apply to slightly damp skin, leave for 10-15 minutes the wash off using cool water. For a mini facial, exfoliate then steam before applying mask.

Results (observed by submitter):
My normally dry, flaky, skin was soft, smooth and glowing.

Costs involved:
A few dollars
