This week we are going to start with something simple that anyone can do at home. I am going to share a Cucumber Mask. First you clean your face as you normally do and then do as follows:
1 Tbs. instant nonfat dry milk, 1/2 peeled cucumber, 1 tsp. plain yogurt
Put all three ingredients into the blender and blend well. Apply to your face and leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.
I did this for a little " Me Time " and enjoyed the way it felt. It didn't look very pretty, but it was so cooling and refreshing. It felt wonderful. I put it on and enjoyed a bubble bath and painted my nails, so it was sort of like an at home spa treatment. It is very beneficial for your Skin.
Topical application of yogurt also benefits the skin, refining and refreshing the face. The creamy texture cools, calms, and refreshes tired skin, while the lactic acid works to reduce the size of pores, tighten skin, and eliminate dead flakes of skin to reveal a fresh, glowing visage. Yogurt also moisturizes and works as a very mild skin lightener to reduce imperfections. A yogurt facial will result in smoother, softer, and more even skin especially when used several times a week

Cucumber makes an excellent ingredient in a face mask, leaving the skin looking radiant and smooth. It can also help with facial blemishes. I personally like the smell of cucumber, so that was aromatherapy for me as well. I put what was left, which was enough for at least 3 more facials, in the fridge to use nightly.
I hope you enjoy your homemade facial mask!
