I made it for the first time about two months ago and I really love the texture and nutrition it gives to my skin. It is perfect for dry skin and fpr the summer in general when your skin needs good nutrition all day.

Nutritive Banana Face Mask

In the world of beauty the banana is considered as “natural botox”. The banana as a lot of nutritions that provide great benefit to the skin. Banana contains Potassium and Vitamin A, B and E. Potassium hydrates and moistures the skin, while the Vitamins do all kind of miracles form fading dark sports to protect from free radical damage and reduces appearance of wrinkles.

Meanwhile, milk is very rich in B-vitamins, Calcium and Vitamin D. Vitamin D boosts the natural collagen production that is essential for reducing the visible process of ageing. Calcium itself promotes collagen production and boosts skin elasticity.

Nutritive Pear Mask For Dry Skin

Once called the “gift of the gods” by Homer, pears are high in vitamins and water-soluble fiber, that play a major role to protect our cells from free radicals. During the summer it is of high importance to nutrition your skin and keep it well hydrated.

Pears have high levels of vitamin C and K, which act as powerful antioxidants. The yogurt provides calcium, B-vitamins and zinc that are responsible for rejuvenating and promoting healthy skin. Finally, cornstarch has anti-inflammatory effect, calms itchy skin, rashes, and burns. This mask is very nutritive and is ideal for dry and sensible skin.

2 tbls Natural Yogurt

1 tsp Cornstarch

Wash and peal the pear. Remove the hard part in the middle and cut into small cubes. In a mixing bowl put the pear, natural yogurt and cornstarch and mix with a mixer. 

Apply the mask all over the face and neck and wait for 20min and rinse with water.

Natural Mint Lotion

An astringent breaks through the skin pores to constrict them, removes easily grease and oil pockets, it counterbalances surplus oil and tightens the skin. In general it has revitalising effect, gives a health glow to the skin and minimises pimples and blemishes. It a must have product for skin problematic skin and skin prone to acne. 

Apple cider vinegar is very effective for treating pimples, acne and other skin problems. Mint contains vitamin A that strengthens skin tissue and helps reduce oily skin.

What do you need?

3 tsp of fresh mint

2 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar

250ml Distilled Water

 Put in a sterile container (with a cap) the mint and the vinegar, close well and wait for at least one week. After one week, filter the solution and add 250ml of distilled water. Apply with a cotton pad to clean well the face.

Natural Clay Mask

Clay Masks have many benefits to the skin, especially skin that is prone to breakouts. A clay mask tightens sagging skin, stimulates the blood circulation and softens lines and wrinkles. Additionally, it absorbs excess dirt and oil and has a drying effect on oily skin, that is why is appropriate for normal and oily skin types. I find this mask very nourishing, as the egg provides a lot of protein, while the honey is a very effective moisturiser for the skin. The yogurt provides calcium, B-vitamins and zinc that are responsible for rejuvenating and promoting healthy skin. Finally the banana provides plenty of vitamin A, E and B for protection and bolsters the skin’s UV resistance.

1 egg

1 tbls Honey

1/2 Banana
