DIY Homemade Yogurt Facemask for Sensitive or Sunburnt Skin


Yogurt is undeniably good for you. Definitely. I often apply this recipe twice a week and found it very effective in treating acne and dry skin. Yogurt is so mild that even those with highly sensitive skin can use it every day. This mask is great for soothing chapped, sunburned or otherwise irritated skin. 
Extra tip: This mask works well for other skin types as well. For oily skin, add a couple drops of lemon or lime juice. For dry skin, mix in a couple tablespoons of honey.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup natural yogurt 
  • ½ cup oatmeal (any type of basic oatmeal works here)                                             

Preparation:

Mix the ingredients together.
Apply to the skin for 10-15 minutes.
Wash off mask with a washcloth steamed in the microwave (careful that it's not too hot).

Another fun option for oatmeal face masks: 
Egg whites. Mix the oatmeal and an egg white with grapefruit and honey. Let the mixture dry on face, then gently wash off with a few splashes of warm water. Follow with a steaming washcloth to the face.



Hope you enjoy!
