Do you want to keep that youthful glow and healthy looking skin? Without using chemical-filled beauty products? If so, you may want to consider making your own hydrating face masks. Here are some recipes to create the perfect hydrating and moisturizing mask for you.
Gelatin Mask
This is an easy mask that you can make at home. Start by combining one teaspoon of gelatin powder with two tablespoons of warm water. Mix until a thick paste is formed. Apply to your face and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Once finished, you will have softer, more supple skin.
Honey Mask
Honey has been known to be an excellent skin moisturizer and humectant. You can combine ingredients like yogurt, oatmeal, avocado, and honey to create an amazing mask. Simply mix together equal parts of honey and one of the other ingredients until a thin paste is formed. Apply the mask to your face and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before washing it off.
Cucumber Mask
Cucumbers have anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. You can make a simple mask by pureeing one cucumber and blending in two tablespoons of plain yogurt and one tablespoon of honey. Apply this to your face and let it sit for about 10 minutes. When you rinse it off, your skin will feel cool, refreshed, and extra hydrated.
Banana Mask
This is a great hydrating mask for dry and aging skin. Simply mash up one ripe banana and combine with one tablespoon of honey. Apply it to your face and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. When you rinse it off, you’ll be left with softer, more nourished skin.
Tips for Hydrating Your Skin
Hydrating your skin doesn’t just have to happen in a mask. There are a few things you can do in your routine to make sure your skin stays hydrated and healthy. Make sure to use a gentle cleanser to prevent stripping your skin of its natural oils. Use a moisturizer that contains natural oils, like avocado or almond oil, to achieve the most hydration. Finally, drink plenty of water to keep your skin naturally hydrated.
