Pretty Is This: DIY Facials

Today I will be posting 3 homemade remedies for your skin! It is officially summer, and especially important to take care of your skin! Whether your skin dries out, or gets oily (mine, big time!), it needs to be protected. Here are some simple ways to create your own facials right at home! I love these ideas. PS: thank you, Pintrest.

Remedy 1: Baking Soda Facial

Step 1: Add 3 tablespoons of baking soda, and one tablespoon of water. Mix well. If you need to add a little more baking soda, do so. You want it to be more of a paste.

Step 2: Rub in circles all over your face and let it dry. After the first layer is dry, add a second layer. Once that is dry, wash your face with warm water and a washcloth.

Step 3: Moisturize!! The baking soda acts as a natural exfoliant, so make sure you use face lotion as soon as you’re done!

Use: 2-3 times a week.

Remedy 2: Lemon juice, olive oil, and honey.

Step 1: Add equal parts of all ingredients into a small container, and mix well.

Step 2: Apply in circles on your face. Let the facial sit for ten minutes.

Step 3: Wash off with warm water, and it make be a little sticky.

Use: 2-3 times a week.

Remedy 3: 1 cup of oatmeal, yogurt, 1/2 an apple (grated), and 1/2 a cup of lemon juice.

Step 1: Mix the oatmeal and yogurt, then add the grated apple and lemon juice.

Step 2: Apply to your face and let it sit for 15-20 minutes

Step 3: Rinse clean with warm water and pat dry.

Use: About two times a week.
