Homemade Skin Care Recipe: Advocado Face Mask

submitted by Ruth, London, United Kingdom

Tip description / details:
This is a very quick, effective mask, it seems to condition your skin and produce really great results. This is very messy but certainly worth it. Take half an avocado, the riper the better.

Ingredients:
half an avocado, olive oil

How to prepare:
Scoop out the flesh and use a fork to mash the flesh to a smooth paste. For very dry skin add a little olive oil to the mix. If you are not using it straight away, store in a jar in the fridge, cover the top with some oil to seal the mixture.

How to use:
Apply to your face and leave on for ten to fifteen minutes lie back and relax you certainly don't want to move around with this mixture on! Soften with warm water and gently wipe off with warm water. Gently pat face dry.

Results (observed by submitter):
Your skin will feel conditioned and silky. It will look soft and smooth. It seems to work nicely on oily skin and dry mature skin. My sister and I both in our 40's, she has dry skin and mine is oily but this seems to give both our skin types a boost and has become a firm favorite.

Costs involved:
Negligible
