Face mask for acne

 Hello guys, today we are going to make a mask for acne and problematic skin.
This mask can be used also for sunburn, burns, allergies and irritations.
It's very easy to make and doesn't need much ingredients, just only aloe vera and honey.
Aloe vera is a succulent plant, which produce two substances: gel and sap which is also called aloe latex.
 This plant has multiple health benefits. It helps to improve blood circulation and digestion and also detoxification.
There are number of scientific evidences about effectiveness of aloe vera extract for medicine and cosmetic purposes.It has soothing, mosturizing and healing properties.
Aloe Vera contains vitamin A, C, E, also B1, B2, B3, B6 and also B12 (which only few plants contains). It contains also Calcium, Magnesium, Copper, Iron and also some fatty acids.
Another ingredient, which we use in this mask it's honey.
Honey has number of health benefits, but specially for skin we use it because it's naturally antibacterial, which is good for acne treatment.
Honey has lot of antioxidants, which slows down aging process.The enzyme, which includes in honey clears the pores. Honey contains nutrients, which nourish, cleanse and hydrate the skin.
The is why we use these ingredients.
Now lets come back to our mask.
We need one leaf of aloe vera. Before using it wash and keep in refrigerator for minimum 40 minutes.

Then gently separate the gel part from sap.

Smash it well. 
When it's  smashed, add one spoon of honey, Here I use table spoon, because aloe extract is more than I was expecting. 

(Sorry for my honey color, but this is what we can find in Indian market, with the name of organic honey.)
Stir this two ingredients well, till they are combined and then apply to the skin.

You can use this mask not only for face skin but also any other areas of body.
Leave it for 20 minutes and then rinse with warm water. Dry your skin with towel or tissue paper and apply moisturizer if you want.
(For those who have allergies and sensitive skin, apply small amount of aloe gel to the skin and wait for few minutes, if it gives reaction than do not apply this mask.)


Stay Beautiful
