| For Dry Skin If your about to head out the door in 30 minutes, but you notice that you have all those flakes on your face from dry skin, then this recipe is for you! It gets rid of the flakes, plus it's good for you! You simply put 1 tbs. milk with 2 tbs. honey and begin mixing! It takes a while for the mixture to completely blend together, so just be patient and keep on working while your watching "Good Morning America"! Then, wash your face with your hand soap (like Dial) and put the combo on your face and leave on for 15 minutes. It's a good idea to tie your hair back tightly, so all your fly-aways don't get caught in the stickiness of the mask and totally flaw your hairstyle that you worked and hour on! After the 15 minutes are up, just easily wash the mask off and "ta-da!" all those flakes are history! Then put on your make-up as usual, and your ready to face the world (without flakes on your face!) |

| Kitty Litter Mud Mask You can use 100% pure clay kitty litter to make a mud mask. Kitty litter (which is actually just all natural clay) is the same ingredient they use in spas. You simply blend the kitty litter into a powder then add small amounts of water until it forms a nice paste or use it for a herbal base. Apply and leave on for about 20 minutes or until dry. It leaves your skin feeling smooth and fresh! |
