Acne Be Gone - Home Made Face Mask

This is my Favourite home-made facial mask!!! It is very easy and inexpensive to make, you might even have the ingredients in your kitchen pantry, Go Check!

I don't say that this will work for everyone, but maybe trying this is worth a shot. It worked for me, no more expensive shop brought products for me (who knows what chemicals are in some of the products on the market).

Ingredients:

Honey

Cinnamon

Combine three teaspoons of honey and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, stir.

Microwave for up to 30 seconds (depending on microwave), microwave in 3-4 second batches  if you are unsure, we only want the honey heated up. It should resemble melted chocolate. 

Note: Honey heats up very fast, make sure to test it on your wrist before applying to your face, you don't want to scald your face. Remember, hot honey is not your friend!

Once heated, apply an even coat to the face. I apply mine with a foundation brush, a lot cleaner then using your hands, but you can use what ever. 

Wait 10 minutes and wash off. Skin feels soft, baby-bottom-like and refreshed. 

I apply my mask before showering and wash off in circular motions, the cinnamon gently exfoliates dead skins cells.

This mask is great for acne prone skin and is gentle enough to be used daily. Alternatively you can apply to problem areas before bed and rinse in the morning. Please be advised if you sleep like I do (Tossing and turning all night) this is probably not an ideal way to do it, Also if you have ant problems in your kitchen, you will now have them in your bedroom.

Honey & Cinnamon are a great combination for acne problems. Honey has natural antibacterial properties and will sooth and calm problem skin. Cinnamon will bring oxygen and blood to surface, drying out the oil that causes pimples.  

I highly advise to use ground Cinnamon rather than Cinnamon Essential Oil, the Essential Oil is very potent  and can cause skin rashes and discomfort (The essential oil would be better used in large batches of cosmetics and lotions etc)

WARNING:  If you have any allergies to Cinnamon or Honey DO NOT USE this mask! In-fact stay right away from anything containing these ingredients.
