Today we're sharing three natural, plant-based facial care recipes. Taking good care of your face is especially important during the summer. Whether you have dry, oily, or mature skin, here are three recipes just for you.
Facial treatment for dry and dehydrated skin
For dry and dehydrated skin, it's essential to provide it with oils and water! This type of skin tends to feel tight, red, flaky, and even painful. Particularly fragile, dry and very dry skin needs special attention!
Here is a simple and very effective recipe for this skin type using avocado, lemon, and honey. Avocado is an oily fruit that nourishes and protects the epidermis thanks to its vitamins A, B, and E. Honey is nourishing and purifying, while lemon evens out the complexion.
The mixture couldn't be simpler:
- Mash the avocado
- Add a tablespoon of honey
- Add a teaspoon of lemon
- Mix everything together
- Apply to previously washed and thoroughly dry skin
- Leave on for 30 minutes
- Rinse and moisturize your skin
The trick is done!
