What are your first thoughts when you see this face?
If the following words popped up in your head: “beautiful, clean, healthy” then you are not the only one.
We are genetically programmed to determine how healthy a person is based on how their skin looks.
This is how we unknowingly choose our life partners.
Your skin is like your body’s canvas and one of its most valuable assets.
This is why is so important to maintain it vibrant, elastic, and healthy.
Because every person has a unique skin type, you have to give it exactly what it needs and this depends from one individual to another.
This is why I will give you some easy customizable homemade face mask recipes.
Why would you use a natural homemade face mask?
Because the compounds present in skin care products are riddled with chemical substances that on the long run can even accelerate the aging process.
That’s why even celebrities use organic substances to continue enjoying a heathy looking skin.
They don’t use commercially available products because they are highly aware of how damaging those products are.
Why bother about that when you can use natural homemade masks which are 100% natural and 100% safe.
So unless you are allergic to any one of the components, then you have nothing to worry about.
Here is what your natural face mask should contain:
- Fruits and vegetables contain high quantities of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
- Yogurt replenishes the natural beneficial bacteria of your skin.
- Oils nurture dry skin and gives it elasticity.
However, there’s another mega-valuable compound that you should add to your face mask.
And that’s the green tea powder.
Just take a look at its jaw-dropping skin benefits:
- Prevents aging
- Increases skin elasticity
- Defends against skin ailments
- Sooths and freshens up your skin
- Reduces inflammation, blemishes, and spots
How you can obtain the green tea powder?
It’s really easy, you just have to dry the leaves and mix them carefully with a grinder until they become a very fine powder.
It will be a powerful, anti-oxidant rich blend that will do wonders for you skin no matter your skin type.
To make the mask, you only need these two ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon of green tea powder
- 1 teaspoon of raw honey
For mixed or oily skin: mix the powder with plain yogurt instead of honey.
For normal skin: mix the green tea powder with a few drops of water.
For dry skin: mix the powder with olive, coconut, and castor oil.
Instructions:
Mix the honey and powder until you form a paste.
You may need slightly more or less honey, depending on its consistency.
Spread the mask over your face and neck using circular movements.
Leave it on for 15 minutes and remove with warm water.
This mask makes your skin silk-like so it’s definitely worth a try.
You don’t have to blow your money on expensive masks to get incredible results.
Let me give you two examples of fruits that can help your skin look fantastic:
1.Avocado Mask
Instructions:
- Mash 1 avocado until you make a paste.
- Apply it on your skin and leave it on for 5 minutes.

2.Banana Mask
Instructions:

You can also add 1 teaspoon of green tea powder to any of these masks (even honey) to enhance their properties and to give your skin a well-deserved nourishing treatment.
Because I want you to have beautiful skin, I will also give you an additional natural recipe to clean your face of all the pollution particles you are exposed to daily:
