For those caught with skin troubles and no masques in the cabinet, or those who are committed to an all-natural approach, you only need to look in your kitchen for ingredients that have been applied to skin as far back as ancient Egypt. Legendary beauties like Cleopatra, Nefertiti, and Helen of Troy were some of the first women to use makeup, and they routinely utilized skin-pampering ingredients to cleanse and treat their faces and bodies. It was such an important part of their beauty ritual that they even documented it on the walls of their tombs and temples � first recorded use of social media?? I think so! Maybe not such a twenty first century invention after all! These ingredients have been used throughout history to treat skin and for good reason, as they are effective and safe, and often the basis of commercially available masques:
Honey and Banana � to moisturize
Warm water + oatmeal + plain yogurt + honey � calms redness
Egg white + turmeric + orange juice � reduces pores and tightens skin
Plain Yogurt + avocado + honey � treats dry skin
Olive oil + brown sugar � exfoliates the skin
For the do-it-yourselfers who want to make a variety of natural gel masques themselves, the Beauty Juicer is just that � a juicer that gives you the option to add a collagen capsule to create the perfect gel masque, fresh and ready to use. It comes with lots of recipes for masques, and since it is an actual juicer, you can skip the masque and simply make your own juices if you choose. There are even recipes for things to make with the leftovers after making your gel masque, as well as natural scrubs. Win-win. Beauty inside and out!
Add a weekly or bi-weekly masque to your beauty routine and watch your skin begin to glow and absorb your treatment products so much better. And while you are at it, take a selfie! Just like the stars!
