Face Masks... Natural/Store bought...Which are your favorites?

about.com is a great place to find recipes for Natural Face Masks.  I am including 2 of them here for all of you. Try them and let me know how you like them. You can leave feedback on Creations by Missprissy and share your thoughts.


Egg White, Honey, and Lemon Juice Facial Mask

1 egg white

2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tbsp honey 
Mix everything together until smooth and apply to a clean, freshly washed face. Allow the mask to dry, and then rinse well. Very well.
A little about the ingredients in this mask:
Egg whites. Are full of protein (which is great for nourishing the skin) and they do provide a great deal of firming power AND help reduce the appearance of your pores.
Lemon juice. Super powerful astringent here, which keeps oil and pimples at bay. Lemon juice also lightens the skin, reducing discoloration and giving your face a fresh glow.
Honey. Honey should be in everything all the time, it’s so awesome. In masks, it provides antibacterial power, luxurious moisturizing. Honey’s great for all skin types and for just about any facial care reason you can think of.


Avocado and Honey Face Mask:

This recipe for dry skin involves only 2 ingredients which can be found in your cupboard: avocados and honey which are particularly moisturizing.

Avocados and honey are particularly moisturizing. This mask is great for sun kissed skin, mature, or skin that has been dried from abrasive products and dry skin,. It's best to use a ripe, fresh, organic avocado. Make sure to mash it up into a creamy pulp.

Ingredients:
½ very ripe, soft avocado
¼ cup honey
Preparation:
Mash the avocado in a bowl, then stir in honey.
Apply to skin and leave for 10 minutes. 
Rinse face with a cool washcloth.
