Give Yourself a Carrot Facial
March 24, 2009
Beauty and skin care products are on the market in abundance. There are products sold that make many promises to women. Some eliminate wrinkles while others hydrate or dry out skin. Facial masks are a famous product that women like to use.
They are inexpensive, quick and easy to use, and the results are usually smooth, soft skin. But you don’t need to go to the beauty counter to buy a facial mask. You can make one at home with ingredients that you normally keep in your refrigerator.
One type of facial mask that you can make from the comfort of your home is a carrot facial mask. Carrot facial masks are best for women with oily skin. But all women can use them to prevent wrinkles. The free radicals found in carrots allow the skin to regenerate and make healthy new cells. To make your own carrot facial mask and have beautiful clear skin, read this article.
To make your carrot facial mask, start with a bunch of carrots right out of your refrigerator. Peel the skin off the carrots and boil them until they become soft. Once they are soft, remove them from the pot and mash them together into a paste.
Add to the paste one tablespoon of honey. Honey is a natural remedy used to cure many different ailments. It also works as an anti-inflammatory and removes germs from the body. If you’d like, you can also add a tablespoon of olive oil to the paste. Olive oil keeps the skin hydrated and clean.
If you have oily skin, add some fresh lemon juice to the mixture. Lemon juice is a natural astringent and works great on oily skin. The amount of lemon juice that you add to the paste is determined by your skin type. If you have dry skin use about eight drops of lemon juice. If your skin is oily, add as much as a tablespoon.
Make the paste smooth by adding water to the mixture. Do not add too much water because you want the paste to be somewhat thick. Too much water will cause it to be runny.
Prepare your skin for the mask by washing all of the areas to which you would like to apply it. Pat your skin dry; do not rub it. Evenly apply the carrot facial mask to your face and any other areas. Let the mixture set for about fifteen minutes. After it has dried, wash your skin with warm water and pat dry again.
