Did you know you can make your own facial masks at home using cheap, natural ingredients from your kitchen?

If you’re used to having facial masks professionally done or buying expensive facial masks and beauty creams, the idea of doing a facial mask at home will probably draw a blank on your face. “Messy” and “inconvenient” are words that probably come to mind. As long as you know what ingredients to use and can follow instructions, making your own facial masks at home is quick and easy.

Our great-grandmothers did it before us

Nature-based skin care recipes date back to ancient times. For example, the Egyptian queen Cleopatra liked to soak in a rose petal and milk bath to keep her skin soft.

Perhaps even your own grandmother had her secret beauty routine—probably a facial mask you didn’t know about—done at home in secret.

However our ancestors did it and whichever ingredients they used, natural-based beauty care rituals have always been good for the skin. So why not add natural facial masks to your regular skin-care regimen?
